fuel tank not filling all the way?

i recently had my fuel tank sent out and coated (lifetime guarantee, yes i've been warned by experienced mechanics) due to rust powder clogging my fuel system. while i was at it, i replaced all the old hoses, vent system included, with new hoses.

 

since then, gas pumps' auto shutoff feature stop at ~3/4 full tank. if i *slowly* keep filling/topping off, i can get it full all the way.

 

the new vent hoses were not pre-shaped like the stock ones. the only theory i can think of is that one or more of these hose turns has been partially kinked trying to make a sharp turn.

 

can anyone verify my theory? would that cause the problem i'm having?

 

thanks!

 

(heres pics of the fuel tank coating if anyone is interested)
