One thing fixed to another problem

Ok, So I removed my emissions crap. But just the rats nest. I kept the acv and aab's hooked up cause I still have the stock exhaust and cats. Heres the problem Im facing now.
When I shut down the car the secondaries fill up some (not to the top or even close to that like some people are complaining of) with fuel. It seems like the bowls fuel is being pushed out. Cause when I get the car started it will rev up the die out until fuel gets up through the carb again. Ive checked that silinoid up by the fuel lines and its fine. I also have pressure building up in my gas tank. enough so that is sounds like im opening a bottle of soda when I pop the cap.
Any ideas on what this could be? Ive been searching through here already on the subject up I havent seen anything that helps me yet.

I had a similar problem today. Do you have your charcoal canister hooked up right, because that was my problem.

In the picture you see a hose not clamped, that is supposed to go to the charcoal canister. When I clamped it down I got a little flooding of the secondaries.

I left it unclamped and everything is fine. I also just picked up a charcoal canister and will be installing it soon.

yeah, the charcoal canister is hooked up fine, and as stated the vent solenoid works just fine. Ill check over the whole evap system though, and check out that check valve down by the gas tank.
