Re: [T3] gas cap


If you've the thin tube that goes over the front trunk bulkhead and down by the
front left wheel (driver's side for USA) it may be clogged or squashed
somewhere.  We didn't have charcoal cannisters, so could be that's blocked I
suppose.  I don't think you should have pressure or vacuum in there.
