My '98 Disco has intermittently (and yesterday twice) had fuel back up in the filler neck after only adding several gallons. Any ideas?

There is a check valve in the filler neck. You will have to replace the filler neck. Get your wallet out.

Bring it back to the dealer, there's a service bulletin to fix this problem. Won't cost a thing and only takes about 20 minutes to correct.

Had it done to my truck and haven't had the problem again.

can someone check their alldata subscription to see about this TSB on the fuel filler neck? also, has anyone had a fuel tank baffle come loose or anything? has anyone had any problems with the evaporative cannister on the passenger side of the engine bay?

A TSB is not a recall. If you are out of warranty, you will have to pay. There is no baffle in tank. Evap cannister problem will have to turn on SES light. If you e-mail me at [email protected], I will look up TSB and fax it to you. TSB's are to guide a LR tech on how to repair, not a warranty issuse.
