problems with refuel

I had one of those leaky gastanks so it was replaced last year.

The new one is somewhat different, means I can fill probably 1.5 gallon and then gas comes up and out the filler neck and shuts the filling valve.
You can imagine that filling up the tank is very annoying and time consuming.

Anyone else had this problem, any solution to solve this?

Check the plastic vent thing, just inside the left rear sub-frame rail, just inboard of where the rear sway bar link attaches to the sub-frame rail.
