Re: cause of pressurized fuel tank?

well, the emissions system on the truck is pretty passive. No computer, so it just has cat converter and charcoal canister, and AIR pump. Hopefully I'll get a chance to look at it this weekend if the rain holds off. Should be something I can easily bypass for testing purposes at least.

As predicted, now that I have the gas cap loose, I was able to drive the 18 miles home, and no dripping when I parked.

Interesting mention of the fuel pump. I did replace that last year, but don't recall how many hose ports it might have had. Will take a look, for what it's worth. I THINK that I had this issue even before that time, but am not 100% sure anymore.

Thanks for the other ideas though.
