Haven't had this problem first hand... but I assume you are not having luck at a gas station.
Maybe use a portable container? Like 5 gallons at a time?

Good luck.

Fuel tank issue is something very problematic for a Porsche 996 user. You have to go through the details for this problem. I hope this video might help you to have some idea at least. How to Replace a Fuel Tank Sending Unit on a 82 Porsche 911 - YouTube

1) Fuse E6 that controls the filler tube flap is blown
2) The tubes on the fuel pump can block the flap from opening
(the TSB "Fuel Tank Hose Modification 5/99 2015" addresses this.)
some info here.
