Have a lot pressure in gas tank?? Check this.

Well, after replacing every single component in my evap system, moving the exhaust and muffler (all cost money) I found what the problem was.

Have you guys ever checked into this guy???

Yup, this was the only valve i haven't replaced because I thought they never go bad.
Well, the only way I really found out was after it started Buzzing. Yup, you hear right. The thing was humming like a little biotch.

So, I replaced it with one from the JY and my tank does not build nearly as much pressure as it used to.

I think this is worth replacing if you exhausted all of your options.

Just a heads up.

TSB = Technical Service Bulletins I believe. GM's "smart talk"
