I'm not sure I'd be quite that strong. It _could_ be another problem, but he
won't know for sure until he makes sure the gas cap is not the fault. Given
100 chances for failure, the odds are good that at least 95 come from the
cap, the other 5 come from a cracked hose. Since we're discussing an '01,
I'd take bets that the hoses are in good condition.

Sure. Twenty dollars of cleaner for a fifteen dollar cap.
Plus the new one can help with the occasional gas fume smell.
The canister now is a bitch to get at.
