Ask the Dealer if TSB 98-081 applies to your car. Do not fill the tank all the way up the neck, they say not to fill the car after the pump clicks off, yes I know it will still take another gallon or so and most of all make sure the original gas cap is on tight, if it is the clicking type when you try to overtighten then make it click at least three times, no after market gas caps on OBD II cars.
