For the gas thing, sounds like the corrugated vent tube in the filler hose needs attention.



It should be held in place where the rubber tube meets with the tank, and where it meets with the steel filler tube. Basically, at both ends, it's held in place.

For your running issues, pull codes is the first thing I'd do:
