Gas Cap Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> CarJunky>> Open Posting Guest Anonymous Poster snoe2006@yahoo.com Oct 16, 2007, 10:18 AM Post #1 of 5 (3883 views) Gas Cap Sign In I have a 1997 Mercury Grand Marquis. When I open the gas cap there is no hissing or pressure buildup. Is this good or bad. Thank you! way2old Veteran / Moderator Oct 16, 2007, 10:35 AM Post #2 of 5 (3880 views) Re: Gas Cap Sign In Really that is a good thing. It means all the vents and regulating devices are working properly. It also probably mrans the outside temperature is lowered and is not causing as much pressure in the tank. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Guest Anonymous Poster snoe2006@yahoo.com Oct 16, 2007, 11:05 AM Post #3 of 5 (3877 views) Re: Gas Cap Sign In I thank you for responding. The thing is I have made a lot of to the car, but all of a sudden I'm getting lousy gas mileage, and I thought it may be due to the evap system. Any thoughts on that? way2old Veteran / Moderator Oct 16, 2007, 12:46 PM Post #4 of 5 (3872 views) Re: Gas Cap Sign In The evap system should not affect your fuel mileage that much. If one of the solenoids were malfunctioning, it should only pull vapors out of the tank, not liquid fuel. How many miles/km on the car and when was last tune up?

I changed plugs, plug wires, new tires, new coils, fairly new egr, trans fluid change, new idle air valve, replaced coolant temp sensor, all recently, but no codes show on reader. Can't figure out what's wrong- maybe oxygen sensor next? Any thoughts.
