If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Perfectly normal, the tank is sealed to prevent fumes escaping. When the pressure builds up too high it is released into the black plastic filter behind the steering box. When the engine starts the fumes get sucked in.
If the hiss stops happening, you have a leak
I'm guessing you think the gauge is faulty because it goes down so quickly? Again this is normal, a jimny has a tiny fuel tank and does about 30 mpg.
