    How does eg civic (efi) release fuel pressure in summer

    Hi there,
    I notice a noise come from under the fuel tank what sound like a gas leak during hot days.

    I open the refill cap and lot of gas rush out.

    And the gas leak noise stop.

    I suspect the fuel got really hot and pressure build up.

    Is this gas leak noise normal?
