This.
OP: You've likely saturated the charcoal canister at this point performing this stunt, which is why it didn't do it originally, despite it being soundly unendorsed by the OEM. If you stop doing it, there is a chance that you may not have to replace it.
This makes sense. I really don't know why I leave it running. Just a bad habit. My dad always did it and so have I.
I never top off or if I do which is very rare I maybe go from like 26.27 to 26.30 that's it though. I usually don't even bother. My OCD in that regard has gotten better as I've aged.
It hasn't acted up when shutting it off to get gas. And it doesn't act up unless you fill it. It only misbehaves when fueling while running to full.
So I'll stop doing that and keep a watch on it.
