This is a small nuisance problem for me on my '98 and Ford dealer should be contacted as slow filling/premature pump shutoff is a "recall" item. They use another term (sorry, can't quickly find their notice), since recall is for safety items, but will replace at no cost. Problem I believe is size of air-escape hole, in flapper valve assembly.

My '97 has a larger hole, does not have the problem and is not subject to this "recall".
