hey guys, I done a search but couldn't find what the problem was or don't think its the same. this is whats happening, the fuel vapor is building up in the fuel tank with no were to go, if i close my fuel cap i get fuel coming out of the charcoal canister breather. so what i do is leave the fuel cap a little bit open so the fuel vapor can escape. I have changed the fuel cap also, and been to about five different mechanic.
i just found this out today that one of the hoses, the bigger one that goes to the charcoal canister is actually taking fuel to it not the fuel vapour

Depends if you do mostly city or highway driving. I assume the V8 Soarers Tank is about 80L, so that means your getting about 16L/100km fuel economy. A little bit high in my opinion but it seems thats what everybody else gets.
Replacing the oxygen sensors if they are dead will get you better fuel economy.
