Hey guys. I work from 11am to 4pm on Saturday. So I can't make it to the cruise but I can probably make it to the car show. I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks so much for all the help.

04RX8man: it amazes me how big the 8 scene is here in SoCal. We're not even done with this meet and we're already planning 3 meets in the next 2 months.
definitely a helpful bunch of guys. Hell, only we could do an intake swap at 3am and start an engine fire! (please tell me you've seen that video)


rodjonathan: yup, small evap leak is what happens.
I use the 3 click method and it's never let me down.

Zach: if you can make it up to the H.B. area, I'll make sure Atilla has access to my scanalyzer.

there is a TSB about the gas cap.

certain year model's gas cap's seal ability will go down in a few years, after that even you "click" it like 2 dozen times, it still not going to seal.

There is a "new" version gas cap that will fix this problem. cost maybe 15-20 bux. just like 3rd part cap.

I bought the new one for almost a year but never bothered to install it. maybe i do it tomorrow.
