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 .
