I would look to the venting system and wonder. Do you overfill your tank? Fuel in the evap lines and canister might lead to this type of condition.

The first/easiest thing I would check is to see of the filler overflow is plugged (at the bottom of the filler, there should be n overflow, with some hose going down to the fenderwell area)
That'* the first thing that pops into my head that might prevent air from getting into the tank. If this were plugged, when the pump sucks gas out of the tank, air wouldn't be able to seep in to equalize the prssure.
