I posted this on a related post on dangerous tank pressure
After convincing myself that my evap system charcoal canister was the
reason my gas tank was building up substantial pressure, releasing
fumes and causing gurgling noises coming from the tank, I tried one last
thing. I replaced the evap purge regulator, a 15 minute job with no tools
required!
After changing the EVAP purge regulator in Santa Fe, everything functioned
perfectly with no pressure build up all the way to Denver and beyond?
I've attached a photo of the location behind the antifreeze reservoir. And
here is the link to the $40.00 part for my 97 EVC
Seems like this is a good place to start for anyone with this problem as
it is quick and cheap.
Clearly, altitude and temperature are factors as others have pointed out on
the EVC website. We will continue on our trip while monitoring the
situation.
I've had some anxious days over this.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my problem has been solved once and for
all....
