Your s10s system may prevent it from doing this but almost everything GM makes if you overfill regularly it will mess it up, trailblazers, envoys, 99-up trucks. etc...

Well, it looks like I've been lucky. I've been doing it this way on my '00 S-10, and '05 GMC Sierra since new, and haven't had a problem. Maybe this has been because I usually burn at least 2 gallons right away.
What are the symptoms when the evap solenoid burns up. If mine are fried, I'd know right?
Thanks,
