Ok... gas gauge says1/2 tank. Tried to fill it up for a trip tomorrow but it won't take any gas ... Just spills out the top where the gas pump goes. I'm sure the gauge is right. Is there a filter inside filler tube?

There should be an anti-rollover check valve where the fill tube goes into the tank. There is also the vent system to consider. The charcoal canister could be saturated, or more likely the vent tube could be clogged by spiders.
All that said, are you really sure the tank isn't full? That it says 1/2 tank is suspicious since that is what the gauge will read when the driver's side fuel sender has failed and the tank is anywhere from half full to over full. I'd drive around and burn some of that gas off to find out.

Well never had an issue like this before. I filled it a week ago and drove about 120 or 130 miles on this tank. I'm afraid to take car on trip now since I can't fill it up
