Possible failing fuel pump.

I forgot to mention that I do have a durametric but not sure that I could easily find the problem with it either.

Due to the fueling issue, I'd look at the threads that come up in this search:

"Regeneration Valve"

Or another part of the evap system.

breather valve assembly unbolted as I was not getting the "click" that people described you should be getting with a functional unit. I was shopping around to purchase the valve and hopefully fix the problem when I noticed these wires that were damaged. Is the narrow cylinder the magnet that people have described that is part of the valve? I can't see exactly where it goes and I was very slow and methodical when taking the assembly off to hopefully not damage or lose it like people reported. The other wire is obviously broken in half and I suspect this is rodent damage based on some droppings I have seen in the garage lately. I do not see exactly where the other broken end is though?

to replace the sensor/wiring that was chewed through. I checked the fuel filler after putting everything back together and I now get the "click" when the fuel filler valve is opened that was missing before. The car was very low on gas before and was now showing about 1/4 tank and the fuel light was no longer illuminated as I headed to the gas station to fill it up. Unfortunately I immediately was doused with gas again as it evidently did not solve the problem so back to the drawing board with I guess replacing the fuel valve assembly. I put about 6 gallons in the tank slowly and carefully and drove the car about 15 minutes to my parents house. The car sat for about 30 minutes but would not restart again and is "dry" cranking like it had done before. I let the car sit again for about 2 hours and still could not get it to start. I am going to go back over there tomorrow and see if the durametric will show anything. The CEL l had before is now gone due to the car being unplugged while I was waiting on parts to arrive.
