 My CEL came on again,giving me a PO 457 code.It's done this before,only this time ,the little engine light came on also.Before it was just the loose gas cap light.
A few months ago i replaced the gas cap,and it worked for awhile.
I also noticed the nozzle hole had 2 sliding things,that pushed open,for the nozzle,were gone.Anyway i think it's the fuel filler neck,thats the problem.Fuel filler neck supply in Washington,has them for $45 somthing,plus shipping.I'll have to do more research.
What did i accidently push to make,these letters go on a angle???


see ya,old retired guy:cheers:frd

You clicked the slanted "I" button or Ctrl-I.  Italics.

 I spent 3 months chasing down the loose gas cap code. I spent about $300 on parts that didn't need changing. It ended up being a pin hole in the fill hoses.

I ended up taking the bed off to get to the hose and gasket for the sending unit.

 When I had to replace the filler neck in my 2000 Ranger I purchased it from Filler Neck Supply. Since I removed the bed of the truck to replace the filler neck I also replaced the rubber hose from the neck to the tank. IIRC if the metal filler neck, or the rubber hose have a hole in them it will act like the gas cap is loose not holding the proper pressure on the fuel system causing the CEL to trip.
