Problems at the gas pump

98 Altima GXE
When I put gas in my tank, it only takes about a gallon at a time before the handle clicks like it is almost full. I would wait 5 or so seconds then proceed. After doing this repeatedly, it takes 10 minutes for me to fill up my tank. Frequently my car seems to get a little angry and spit a ball of gas out of the tank. Im not talking flow or trickle out, I mean gas shot out of my car so far, that it hit the trash can 4 feet behind me. At times I even get an audience and people telling me that my tank is full or something must be wrong with my tank. Full serve gas stations is a whole different story. I keep it simple though, "just let me pump it, got tank problems and its gonna be a while." Anyway, i'm gonna try to hold off till spring before I tackle this problem (if its complicated). I have a good idea that it has something to do with the EVAP system or fuel pressure problems. Can anyone pinpoint the culprit?
