Fuel Tank Gargle

I have a 98 cherokee sport; right after it has been running there is a gargling sould that seems to be coming from the fuel tank. Is my fuel pump about to go or is this normal?
 
I also have a 98 and mine has done that since the day i bought it......the gurgle is especially loud after I re-fuel. Since my XJ starts up no problem I'm not suspect of the fuel pump.....thinking more like breather tube or some kind of run-back to the tank.....in any event....hasn't effected the reliability of my Jeep in the slightest.

x2, probably nothing to worry about, just the fuel evap system at work. You are not getting any codes are you? If the fuel cap has been replaced with the wrong type it could cause problems, but I think it would be more than just a gurgle.
