Full Tank Blues

From day of delivery till now 73K I've always had some kind of problem when the tank was full. Early on it was a hit and miss stalling problem at first start and then for a couple of minutes.Now after almost 3 years it justs smokes abit(my garage fills with smoke), after that it's fine. 3/4 of a tank is fine though, Early on till about 5K it would stall after backing out the driveway? I've learned to live with it but there must be a reason why? trimman

This may sound odd, however, on my old brand D truck, there was an issue with the gas caps. They didn't seal properly causing pressure leaks. The truck would hesitate sometimes, the Check Engine light would come on. I replaced the cap and it cleared things up. Maybe this could be similar.
