I want to thank you for this entry. The noise my Infiniti was making
that eminated from the gas tank area appears to be what you offered up
in this thread.
When the noise occured at shut down, I opened the gas cap, heard a lot
of pressure release and the noise stopped.

Thank again for your input. It helped me figure out a noise that was
bugging the crap outta me!
