Jason,
�
I've never had this problem, but it seems that you have a problem with
your breather tubes and/or your pressure compensating line on top of
your tank. Either they are obstructed or they were not connected
properly.

My 2 cents.

hey all,
i have been off the list for a year now.� i left because of threads
similar to what is going on right now.� i don't want to mention it b/c
we all know which one. i just want to say to those people-- GET A LIFE!
�
now that i got that off my chest,
i have a 90 vanagon.� i am experiencing an unusaul problem that i hope
you all can help me with.� my gas tank makes a strange depressurizing
(sp?) noise.� for example, when i have been driving for a while and come
to a stop light or stop and turn off the car, after about 20 seconds my
gas tank goes klunk!.� similar to if someone was inside the tank and
signaling me to let them out.� i also hear this noise when i stop to get
gas.� when i remove the gas cap, there is some pressure being released
which i presume to be normal, but this is followed by�a singal KLUNK!�
it is defineltly coming from the tank.� could it be the return gas line
being partially clogged.� the lines have never been replaced.� i have
checked the tank and no visual signs of anything being loose.
�
where should i start?
thanks
jason
