| The machanic said the canister plugged by driving on gravel roads and that the new canister is redesigned. my question is-- should i have to pay for replacing a $160 canister and hose which may not have been designed quit right. replacing a air filter for $10 to $20 does not bother me, but when your told a canister in a pickups fuel system needs replacing, because of gravel road use --------that does not seem right!!!!!! | |||
