Allright CEL Small Evap Leak = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
« on: December 27, 2005, 11:44:05 PM »

Sooo... about three years or so after my CEL lights up, I finally get it looked into fully (otherwise I fail inspection).

after running a smoke test, shop says they have to drop the gas tank. A sensor there is bad, and thus the issue (no longer making a seal)

well, they call me up, say it's rusted.

wait to days to soak the bolts.

nothing

nada

zip

new gas tank from Chrysler (with all attachments): 1200 Dollars (u.s.)!!!!!

so, they are looking for used.

argh!!! go me!!!

Holy crap!! 1200, buy a beater Venger and just take the gas tank.  Or be a cool guy and put an actual fuel cell in there!  Shocked

you know you can get at all the sensors from under the back seat..

all the lines and everything are under access hatches.. so unless the tank itself is perforated (doubtful) then it should be a simple repair.

Dave, they said that the sensors are rusted to the tank, so they had to drop it to get them soaked, didn't work (two days of soaking), so yeah.... ugh!!

it's still in the shop. for those keeping track.

I've never had this happen before from these guys. They have always been good. Dunno what gives.
