fuel gurgle and odor 850

posted by  someone claiming to be z on  Sat Aug 20 02:56 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I have a 94 850 turbo wagon with 138 k on it.
Upon filling the car with gas, (early in the day, 9 o'clock) At 5 in the evening I came home parked the car in the garage and within an hour the closed garage is filled with gas fumes. I do not overfill, and I am sure the gas cap is tight and not leaking.
The fumes are a regular happening upon filling.

It has been very hot and I went out to investigate the smell and the car gas tank was gurgling, by itself,(9 at night) car off. The garage is also filled with fumes when it when it is not hot out.I suppose the fumes are from the fillspout area. Anyone have a similar problem? How did you fix it? Please any ideas or solutions to this problem would be appreciated.
