That is a major EVAP leak, caused possibly by a bad gas cap or leaking pressure from your fuel tank.
As for the 3 amigos, are your brakes squeaking? Go try and do a panic stop from 30 MPH plus and see if you feel the ABS shutter thgru the brake pedal and get back to us.

Mike, he just replaced his fuel pump, do you think he didnt get something tight?
That is what I am thinking.

when i replaced the fuel pump i hand tightened very tight and then i used the end of a screw driver(the rounded end were you insert attachments)and a hammer and further tightened the metal ring.the fuel pump is in there tight.
