The early-style fuel filler neck (EOTZ-9034-A) has a thin flexible plastic tube slid into a steel guide at the top of the steel pipe that carries air out of the tank to the vent hole above the flap for the pump nozzle. It's common for this tube to kink or collapse, causing the tank to fill more slowly, and the gas pump to shut off frequently.
