Yes Bgkast and forced are correct, The vent line must be clogged somewhere, most likely point is the screen,

A whoosh is not normal, it will cause your IP to work harder while trying to pump fuel, It can cause a no start or hard start condition.

Dont replace the fuel cap, that would be a waste of money.
