Hello @1eapplebaum ,
It appears that I never followed up on this thread, I apologize.
It was the charcoal canister, although mine wasn't full of gas as I recall, it was just a solid brick of charcoal, I pulled the larger white tubing off and went to the gas station, it filled freely with no kicking off the the pump nozzle.

The charcoal canister is located under the vehicle in the rear as shown in my attached pictures, pull the large white tube off to test while fillin.
NOTE: With the tube disconnected from the charcoal canister while pumping gas into the tank, the gas fumes/vapor/smell will be intense, I bent down under the car while it was filling, I was shocked by the amount of air/fumes blowing out of the white tube, like a blower was on it..

Much obliged for the update. I have ordered a replacement canister and when it arrives I'll get the car up and replace it. Hopefully it will solve the issues.
Should I expect it to be fine straight away?
Also, I assume in the meantime as it has a permanent misfire it's best not to move it, even if I drive it slowly back home? It's a good 20 miles.
