I realize a new cap didn't help everyone but certainly it did for many reporting as much.

I was just asking if filling the fuel tank ...or even "overfilling" the fuel system can cause a problem with the evaporative canister.......somewhere in my mind I seem to recall reading of that possibility after filling up too much.
Everyone perhaps, with the exception of the factory OBD II diagnostic's manual, which says what I told you.
