My first question is about the evaporative loss unit in the trunk. Bear
with
me. Should that unit in the trunk have gas in it? Mine isn't mounted to
anything, just laying flat. And I think it should be mounted one one of the
support brackets somehow. Second, does anyone know a source for the braided
hoses that connect to it? One of them leaks gas like a sieve, so that's the
most obvious problem right there.
Should not be lying flat. Mine is mounted on the frame member up behind the
right rear wheel arch.
If there is gas in there, then you seem to have a problem. Perhaps you over
filled the fuel tank. This is meant to capture vapors, not liquids.
I think I have one of these hoses on my parts car. Let me know if you
want/need it.
