There is a TSB for that problem. 98-15-3 "Frequent Shutoff of Fuel Handle When Filling Fuel Tank". Basicaly the fuel tank has to be dropped to replace the vent flapper valve because it sticks.

If you still have warranty (???) then you are covered. If not, it is your dime (I think). Some dealers can't do it right the first time (I remember posts about fuel spilling everywhere after the first post-repair fill). This because the Ford standard (for warranty claims) is very low ball and they try to rush through it.
