(How do I size down the picture on here from my library) My check gas cap light has been on for a few months now, not good I know. But I took it in three times and they told me it was the gas cap. After two new gas caps I decided the guys at the shop were no help and a waste of money, so I asked on here the other day about what it might be. I was told to check the hoses under...:unsure: er...over the spare tire. I did and this hose was not connected. I hooked it back up but was wondering what it does. It had dust all in it:( . Should I be worried, and need to do something, or what? also what is under the plate marked 1? I began to take it off but it started to look like a litte more than I had time for because it was about dark. Thanks for the help!

I use a program called Irfanview. Very easy to use. If you give it a shot and have questions let me know.
 
Im not sure about the gas cap or hose issue but as far as picture resizing I resize the picture before I add it to my library. I use a very simply program that I downloaded from Coastiejoe's library.
 
That hose connects the 2 evap canisters under the truck....



Look in the spaces above that hose, in there you will see the canisters, look for any unplugged or a hose that is just laying there...

I checked it and everything is good. But like I said, that one hose, shown on the picture was out and had a bunch of dust on the inside as far as I could see. I assume its been getting dust in there for months now. Do I need to do something? Will it cause a problem if I dont? Is there some way to clean it out?
