My fuel pump will not shut off if there is a bit of fuel vapor pressure in the gas tank. When I shut the engine off, the fuel pump keeps whirring until I open up the gas cap and vent the pressure. Then it shuts off. If I remove the breather hose from the charcoal canister, I get small amount of gas fumes come out, which leads me to believe that my charcoal canister is plugged. Should I leave the breather hose disconnected? Pony up the $$$$ for a new charcoal canister? Anything else that might be causing the problem? The fuel pump is brand-new (about 4000 miles on it). |
