I've seen it a lot, Dave (the gas tanks imploding bit).
We get a lot of fine dust around here and it just so happens that the EVAP canisters get saturated with this dust so they can't breathe. Well, folks around here have just gotten used to the check engine light being on because of the vent system performance (P0446) so when they get plugged up enough, the gas cap vent has failed, and they have steel tanks (the early 90's S-10 Blazers are the worst)....... They get sucked up and usually bend the metal fuel level sender assembly.

Oh. No, this is regarding gasoline engines. Sorry to confuse you.
