Fuel cap
Heya,
Just a quick question on fuel caps. On all my other vehicles previous, all fuel caps were vented. Meaning that they let any and all pressure vent to the atmosphere through the cap itself. On my Supra, the cap is a solid non-vented type and makes a loud "pshhh" sound of pressure releasing when I take it off to fill up. Is this bad news bear?! Or is that the way it's supposed to be on this vehicle? Thanks all, -=Littlestan=-
