So awhile back I posted about how my 03 would spew gas when I would fill up. I found a TSB about a vent hose needed to be trimmed 1/2 inch at the filler neck. I've always assumed that the evap canister was clogged, but I figured I would try to trim that hose and see what would happen.
So I'm guessing that vent hose shown in the second pic is supposed to plug into the large hole in the rim of the first pic? I understand from the TSB that the vent hose is supposed to be trimmed 1/2 inch from the end of the fitting, but what I don't know is if there's supposed to be a fitting when it connects the filler door. I'm just tired of spewing gas everywhere when I try to fill up
Also in the third pic is this just a bad fiberglass job or what's going on with that??
