Good thought, I just double checked them. They look in the clear. I was having this issue before replacing the tank and lines. I (rightly so) assumed the tank was gunked up and the sock was plugged.
I have taken the cap completely off, and it still does the same thing. Filler neck is completely open to the tank and atmosphere. The tank is not getting a vacuum on it. I did use my AC vacuum pump, a piece of plexiglass, and a hose and the cap vent does vent under vaccum.
