It's easy to confuse pressure and vacuum in the tank. Regardless, try running with the cap loose and see if the problem goes away.

How long after filling the tank does he have the problem?

he can run 3 or 4 days before he have some trouble ,but sometime after 1 hour , some other time he have that trouble after he stop his truck himselve to do shopping, or go to school, and when he restart the engine have esitation and stall, ...for the cap he try one day but the fuel go out . cap loose to much because of the vibration. sorry for my english
