Default Now whats wrong!?

When ever i ride my p650 a long distance (30 + miles) the gas tank builds up so much preasher in the lines that gas starts driping from under my instermant gauge, and when i remove my gas cap if i dont do it very slow it will spout gas 10 feet high when the presure is released at once. Also i can here my gas "bubling" before i release the preasure. I dont think its getting hot and boiling because i can tuch it and it isent hot. Its got me stumped. I wonder if the warrenty will fix it?

Your saying gas is coming out of your LCD display? I dont see how that is possible. Maybe you have a block carb drain hose or something?

I'm not sure if their is a vent tube for your gas tank but if their is mayby it's pinched or plugged.

What's probably happening is that the heat from the engine is pressurising the fuel in the tank because it expands when heated. Your vent tube must be plugged coming from the tank, or the check valve is sticking, something like that. Warranty should definitely fix it.
