Multiple videos in replacing parts, but for some it makes sense to know the why certain component is actually failing, I watch this video as many other videos and all just replace the canister but no one said why is bad or what is bad in it. Reading the comments found out that by overfilling the gas tank some of that gas will pass to the canister and then damage the screen that hold the charcoal in it. Is easy to replace parts but some will like to know what actually went wrong. Hope this helps anyone, Thanks to
"he's the Master
" your comment makes more sense than watching 100's of videos!

Just a tip and I don't know if it works for anything else but in my 2002 Chevy Tracker, if you turn the nozzle upside down, push it all the way in and let it rest against the fuel door, it pumps with no problem!

Wow, A really awesome video. I have never seen this repair or problem on a car before. It's always great to see and learn something new. It seems like the factory would have wrapped that whole assembly in plastic or something to keep the rust out. But like my brother says. They don't want things to last forever, lol. Jim, I hope you have a Blessed Fall So Far.

Well no need to ask if you live in the rust belt 😆 Great job. Thanks for sharing 👍

[czeckboy]

Very informative! Thanks. Our '03 Volvo V70 is suffering from this same issue.

This just started happening to my 99 Corolla, but only at some gas stations. Guess I’m taking a trip to my mechanic before it’s too late😂

Thanks. Have a 05 Volvo S60 2.5t found out that the fuel filler neck vent pipe was leaking. Part discontinued through the manufacturer. Garage couldn't find one in my area. So they used epoxy. Picked it up and went to a gas station and can't put gas in my car. Alot of pressure coming out of the fuel filler neck. I know it is a emissions system problem. So I hope that the manufacturer still makes the carbon canister

Detailed and well explained, thanks Jim

That's an easy repair for someone like this guy 😂

Over filling the tank is the worst thing anyone can do. Eventually the gas gets into the EVAP canister may melt away a protective filter screen so the pellets get released
and then contaminates the whole system or seals up the filter and blocks the retention of vapors by the pellets. Newer cars may have a check engine light that goes on.
Rest it and it comes back day after day. You will need a new EVAP canister!

Charcoal canisters are the worst thing to happen to cars since the Smog pump

My 2019 Ram 1500, bought used, has been doing the same thing since day 1...Great info!! Thanks!!

[rodrigofabregas]

Thank you Jim for this very useful video!. Have this problem on my 2009 DODGE Durango 5.7 Hemi for a while...just getting worse, so I'll have to do this repair soon, wonder if is just the charcoal canister or can be another thing also.

I'm having this problem on my 1997 F 250 with duel tanks, but only one tank gets used. Could this be reason it won't take fuel? It didn't have this problem until a shop replaced the fuel pump.

[jameslittle]

Great video, I’m currently having this issue with my 2019 Ram truck smh

[artemiocortes]

Great video. Although I didn't realize till the end from my own ignorance that this isn't a tutorial for a cadillac escalade ...

[kevinprager]

Thanks man I'm going to have my mechanic help me out to fix mine, I've been overfilling my tank because I drive hundreds of miles everyday. Apparently doing that makes this problem appear faster than normal. Mine used to never have this issue and then it just started doing it last week. I hope this is not expensive to get repaired

[ricardorodriguez]

Hi Jim, what car/model is the one you showed up in your video. I own a Volvo S60 04' a side effect for not having air exit is that the gasoline drips out of the tank using the lowest point exactly on the fuel sender unit just behind the driver's seat. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.

Great video! Thanks.. Also looking to see why 05 Pacifica goes to empty when it drops under half full? Something to do with the passenger side of the saddle bad fuel pump.
