As I stated earlier today, I did test the gas cap with my mouth and it appears to work at the moment, but I'll keep an eye on it.

So I checked all the hoses to the canister and I was able to push air through all of them and get a response from my wife as to whether she heard air rushing or not and they are all clear.

I then put it all back together and I am getting a nice vacuum at the hose that goes back to the tank so I'm going to go with the fact that the valve in the canister at least works.

I'll continue to monitor this and see how it acts at the next fill up. If still the same I will swap out the gas cap and then go from there, hopefully I can report back by the end of the week that all is well in the world, so stay posted.
