Gas cap goes pssf - normal

Seriously? It's the left over vapors from your coilpacks number 1,3 and 5 that didn't detonate gas and it was forcefed into the gasoline vacuum line, your lucky it didn't rush back into your LIM and explode your engine...lol...you'll be ok.....

???Wha??? I was talking about the void in the tank itself, you must be talking about the muffler bearing or the flux capacitor...

I checked the description of the evaporative emissions control system in the FSM and it shows the gas cap as having both pressure and vacume relief valves.
Based on the description about it's operation, it seems to me any way, that if you unscrew the cap at a gas station or just just after operating the car, you should hear a vacume release (air rushing into tank) because the system is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere so it burns them in the engine.
If the car is sitting in the sun on a hot day and you release the cap I would expect vapors to come out of the tank and it should smell, more definitely, like gas.
The FSM states that the cap should hold a pressure of 2.22 - 2.90 PSI and a vacume of just -.87 to -.48 PSI.
