Hey LMR,

Have you checked the vent hoses for the carbon canisters are clear?

If the vent hoses are blocked at all it can cause a pressure build up in the tank as you fill up.

This is a fairly common issue on these vehicles.

Let me know how you go.

Regards, Joe

Okay, thanks. I have not checked it yet. I have to finish an engine installation before I can work on this. Your suggestion is very appreciated.
