Ah.  I don't think so.  I could be wrong, but I believe the noise is  
either

a) Some valve near the gas tank

or

b)The gas cap venting under high pressure.

As to the carbon canister -- maybe the valve at the carbon canister  
is bad?  An actual bad carbon canister symptom (I think) will give  
you the smell of raw gas where there shouldn't be one.

tank...)
