It may even be an even simpler problem. I found that if I fill the tank, the auto shut off at the pump leaves the tanke very full (even a quart more will overflow). If I do not drive a few files before parking it and the temperature rises, the fuel expands and actually can come out the cap which is not a great pressure seal. Had this happen once, now I take a little ride after each fill-up.
