Has anybody experienced gas leaking from their gas caps at high speed? Seems like when I hit a certain speed gas starts spraying out of the front of the gas cap! I tried another cap but still the same problem. I did have the tank filled, ya think that could be the problem? xct2

Yes, my fuel cap also leaks like a sieve; at any level over half full.
More than once i've thought of my tabernacles catching alight if the engine has a decent backfire.
One day you'll hear of my demise as the fuel tank explodes with the force of a hand grenade, with me desperately trying to deconstruct the flames and put them back in the tank.

I guess the fuel cap leaks compliment the engine oil leaks, and i've graphically spoken about these issues in previous posts, but it seems to be a recurring theme with these 2-stroke motors.
