Not one I have heard of. Have you checked the fuel filter has not come apart?

There's a good chance it's the Fuel Filter Syndrome (FFS) as outlined in GG's link. However, rather than using a screw on the filter cap, the proper solution is to fit the Fabled Orange Clip (FOC) which is designed for the purpose.
These How Tos may be useful.
Removing the rear seat cushion the easy way:

Servicing the fuel filter (and fitting the FOC):http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ead.php?t=9108



EDIT: Correct error in a link.
