problem with the venting try it with the gas cap off. if that does`nt work, you may need to replace the fuel filter. it`s possible that the vent hole in the gas cap is blocked. this would create a vacuum in the tank and prevent the fuel pump from pumping the fuel out.

I have the exact same problem. After replacing the fuel pump everything was fine. Now the fuel pump does not always kick on and you have to turn the ignition on and off until you hear the fuel pump kick in. Went to start this morning and fuel pump did not kick in, still wont. So I checked the relays, all good. Now the fuel pump kicks on but it still wont start. Did the computer on this thing die?

When i put fuel in tank of my 1987 Acura legend coupe it kicks back and wont accept fuel why?

Just an idea here but did you hear a rush of air when you loosened the cap? If not your fill tube may be collapsed from the vacuum pressure of your evap system and it is now stuck in that pinched state. You may need to get under the vehicle and feel the rubber tube leading from the fuel door to the tank to see if it is collapsed. if so squeeze it so that it will open back up and see about getting a new one.
