if it is pressurised air *escaping* there is something wrong.  If it is
air *rushing in* due to a vacuum it is working right, congratulations I
haven't seen one do this for a long time...

the gas cap and tank are supposed to be sealed and the engine draws a
small vacuum on them to make sure the VOC's are burned, not released
into the atmosphere.  culprits if it is wrong... charc. canister, CC
freq valve, lines to them, etc...
