My Jimmy Won't Take Gas!

So we got it working.
We did what Steve suggested, taking the line off and blowing air through it. No game, because the valve in the filter was broken (air going only one direction). So we replaced the valve ($25), a quick repair to an annoying problem.
But Steve's solution helped us locate the problem. With the line off, we could put gas in, so the problem is isolated. We just had to nail down whether it was a line problem, blockage or (in this case) the valve.

A friend of mine had the same problem with his altima. I forgot exactly what it was but it was a cheap fix.. If i see him walking his dog tonight I will hit you back....I wanna say it was some type of sensor in the gas tank that shuts off the tank when full which is why the gas wont go down.
