    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    If anyone has the zone part number ZONC9315 body lift on the SUV’s and you’re having a evap issue the inner fender may be pushing on the evap fitting like it did on mine.

    If it is the body lift that caused it zone needs to put out a psa on the issue.

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    I think this one has a damaged quick connection from my body lift if you see that piece of plastic pushing up on the fitting the body lift forced the inner fender against the evap fitting and probably knocked it loose it would just be me chasing down the hose at the dealer at that point in time

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    my dads 96 suburban broke a similar piece off the gas tank back in the day when I was a grasshopper and with my luck with 2001 GM plastic I lost my original radiator side tank my heater core connectors and many more plastic pieces to age I didn’t blame GM if it is still broken besides the fact...

    All I can say is that that mechanic is incompetent the quick connection was loose and may be causing the issue

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    I’m thinking something like this but a much much cleaner job and it being on a extremely low pressure system.

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    Puzzle code in my head to possibly repair the factory tank I’m thinking of cutting the factory leaking barb with a dremel and tapping a new barb with pipe dope into the old ones place.

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    They’re saying mine is broken by age not wear and tear so that means if they install it they may break the fragile plastic

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    They don’t mind installing a used tank but the problem is that a fuel tank that’s used costs almost as much as this never used one i found does

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    From my understanding the factory piece is 2 separate pieces if it’s those small nipples so if I am careful i can retain the top piece and tap in a fitting

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    I’m thinking something like this and an adapter fitting to a bigger size if the hole is too big on the tank side, and 1/8” hose? To go from the tank vents to the vent this is basically how it works in the older trucks however I want to apply it to my truck to make the evap system hold pressure...

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    I need to get more details from mechanic number one but they’re just 1/8” hoses so I can put a barb as long as it seals
  24. LordWayback

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    From my understanding one of these has failed and if I drop the tank I can cut them out and put a different fitting to seal it up

    Why is it so impossible to get a gas tank

    They are discontinued not a single GM parts dealer within 300 miles (we called all the way from Paso Robles to Palm Springs) and nobody has a brand new tank that’s a GM certified dealer ebay says $500 for a gamble which makes me want to repair this one
