Default Problems When Re-Fueling, Easy Fix?

Hey, Ive noticed the past few times Ive tried to get gas it will pump for like 1-2 seconds then shut off. At first I thought it was the pump, but this has happened to me the past 3-4 times Ive tried it. Its happened when Ive been almost empty, half full, and 3/4 full so Im wondering what would cause this. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Default mine does that sometimes. If you turn the handle upside down it works

not sure if your supposed to do that though.

Try pulling the nozzle out about 1/3 of the way...
