    Angry

    I got some bugs that I can't get rid off, so I'll post some theoritical cases here to go elimitating them.

    I have a huge concern on the Fuel System. Since my Digital Gauge havent arrive, I cant check pressure all the time.
    But each time I go to the Gas Station to fill the Sucker, A huge sound of de-pressurizing comes out when I realease the cap. Is so nasty, that I place myself under the truck to see if there's something wrong, and the tank looks IMPLODE.

    The bottom of the tank is arcked outside in, like when u get a Gatorade Plastic bottle with a lot of thirst and u suck the MF and bends towards the inner side....just like that looks my tank. I just replace the Gas Cap, but same result!!!!!

    Any sugestions on this matter?

    Sounds like a vent line problem?

    Yeap, Allen Turn it off. So is normal to do that?

    When I was young the tank was round and fat, now is skinny and contracted&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

    my tank is the other way, round and fat.

    Turn the evap back on and it may help fix your problem. I assume you still have the evap solenoid on the engine.

    normally it comes off the side of the throttle body to the solenoid on the driver side of the valve covers. It&#39;s actually clipped onto the top of the intake manifold on an Fbody.
