USA 91 Corolla Gas pressure too high and spilling gas!!!!

My dad has a 91 corolla that he filled with gas. He noticed a louder pressure release. Someone came up to him to tell him he was leaking gas after fill up! Apparently it is leaking from the gas cap. Is that normal? What could he check to be on the safe side? What to replace? Shouldnt the pressure vent somewhere?? HELP!!

"you could try posting in the right section"

And where might that be since this is my first post, and you are so friendly?

i would assume you looked as this is a camry forum. this is the forum for you
http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/fo...play.php?f=134

if you look from under there maybe a vent line alongside the main fuel inlet pipe. Also check that you didnt overfill and your charcoal canister lines.
