What is a reasoanble price to pay someone to do this job? I'm unable to do it myself and just wondered how much time it would take a mechanic. I know they tend to double the cost of parts (based on past ecxperience). The labor rate here in AZ is $100/hr in most places I'm unable to use my van any more because of the gas fumes. I'm surprised there was not a recall on this; it seems like a very dangerous thing and also pollutes the environment. Oddly enopugh my van passed the emissions because they only test a leaky gas cap not a leaky tank!
