I bought my '94 Celica used in 2000, today I noticed gasoline leaking from under the car! Glad no one smokes, though I did see it dripping from the exhaust. I was just saying to myself the other day that Toyta sure builds a solid car, never had anything unexpected happen... until today. Hopefully its just a minor hold, though I could smell gas vapours when I opened the windows. Its sitting at a local repair shop, since the dealership I take it to isn't open until Tuesday. If its minor I'll let them fix it, otherwise I'll take it to the dealer.

*Final update*
The total for the repair a sweet $1020 CAN ($700 U.S.). The used tank was $350 CAN, and labour $530 CAN + 14.5% sales tax. Just for curisoity I called another parts dept. they said a new fuel tank is $650 CAN. What a mark up, I'm sure it costs them less than $100 to manufactuer. Hopefully no more problems until I sell it in a year. |
