It is entirely possible that while you're filling the Jeep that you are in what's known as a purge cycle. This is the most likely answer if you are fueling it with the engine running. It's also possible that you've got a failed purge vent solenoid, which relieves the pressure in your gas tank as a semi combustible vapor into the intake manifold. This is part of what is known as the EVAP or Evaporative emissions system. If your check engine or service engine soon light is on it's likely due to the latter, if not the it's most probably due to leaving it running during fueling. Anyways with limited info this is what I can offer up. Hopefully you can solve the problem, sounds like it might take a lot of time to fill an empty tank otherwise.
