theyre sposed to last the life of the car, however topping off the tank constantly (overfilling it) will kill them. thats why you stop putting in gas when the pump turns off.

every time? it could be a problem with the purge lines or solenoid, a clogged or pinched line somewhere.

well he is older than me and he doesnt top it off. i am usually there when he gets gas and i never see him go over after it shuts off. i think this car is probably known for the evap issues to then cause my brother takes care of his car.
