Subject:      Fuel Tank cross over vent/pipe
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

I have the leaking tank syndrome when filling up the fuel tank to the top. . A new tank was installed not long before I got the current van. Had this problem on a previous van and a mechanic friend fixed it. Don't know how difficult or how long it took. Was done as a favor by the friend. Around here the few shops willing to work on a van as old as mine (1991 Carat) quote shop rates at $130/hr and project 4 hours for the job. basically $400. Is that reasonable/? Sounds mighty high to me. Is this cross over tube that difficult to get to? Is there a shortcut procedure? Have any of you done this yourselves? Would you describe what you did and how long it took, please..
