    Might just be a loose gas cap. Try giving it several clicks when you fill up with gas. If that doesn't do it, try replacing it. If not that then you have some vacuum hose leaks or Evap canister (less likely) or Evap selonoid (more likely) has gone bad...only about $20 from fcpgroton.com

        The Evap can is located in front of the gas tank under the rear of the car. The Evap selenoid is located on the top of the radiator fan shroud, engine side. You'll see it with a hose running into it and out with a directional airlock on one side. Download the 850 Service manual. A lot of this info is in there as yours and the 850's are so much alike.
