Hissing... Fuel pump? Help???

So I recently started hearing this hissing noise from the rear end, when I look under it seems to be coming from the gas tank, I was thinking could it be the fuel pump? Anyone ever have this before?

I know it sounds funny but I had that problem with a ford once and it turned out it was the gas cap. just take the cap off and see if it stops, if so just get a new one.

Check this site out. It's a fairly common problem on cherokee's. Not sure if it's the same noise you are discribing, but it's worth the read.

Good luck.
