[QUOTE="DAM Sport Trac, post: 1048401, member: 76293"] Any emissions testing facility should be able to test the cap for you. Unless the govt has reno moved that function from the machines over the last ten years. Most of your drive through test centers may not have inspectors that have the permissions granted by the test site owner to access the diagnostics mode but a repair shop tech should know how to do the test. Emissions test equipment is an invaluable diagnostic tool for a good drive ability tech or performance shop. New gas caps from stant are not too expensive for most vehicles. There are some that were a little pricey but the cap for an ST I would guess is below $25 at the auto parts store. A quick search on partsgeek.com has the Motorcraft OE brand for $17 (‘03 Sport Trac) if you want to stay with an OE part. I didn’t see the stant brand offered on my autozone app, perhaps they are not as desirable these days or gone back to being an OEM supplier? Gates and Motorad are also reputable brands. Now I’m curious about the lack of listings for the stant brand. [/QUOTE]
