Fill up tank and lose through carbon canister

When i fill up the car petrol tank full the petrol comes out of the carbon cannister valve until the car has driven over 40 - 50 kms. Has anyone else experienced this. Three weeks ago i filled up to only find petrol pissing out of the canister and thought this was a one off. Last week i filled up an...

When my alternator went they replaced it with one from a nissan. I still think (6 years ago) the nissan part number is on it.

Got another to find that around 70 - 80 kmp and 90-95 the thing goes 76 74 78 82 75 but when o...

Hanging Rock

I'd say best would be around late november. The weather is usually nice and the footy season is well over. 19th , 20th november or 26, 27. From memory there are BBQ's . I think there is a fee to get in (surpise, surprise!) How many are interested ?

Cruise

Yeah, mine is a everyday runner. That sounds good. Hows a cruise to hanging rock sound. Can kill two birds with one stone, a day out for the cars and keep my two terrorists happy (Kids).

Watch out for those Mechanics ! Funny story.

Back in '93 when I got my boy (Piazza) the first time I picked it up from my mates place and went for a drive. After driving for an hour the radiator light came on. Not knowing where the water went i rang my mate to ask (Dumbo I was) him where it was. He told me stuffed if I know the dealer looks af...

Cheap handling fix

I had my Piazza lowered a few years ago due to the car being higher to one side. The only way the guy could fix was to lower it the other side. I then had better handling. Well it takes some time to get to know your limitations on this car (The great ocean road proved that !) Anyway back to subject ...

Who has owned there Piazza the Longest ?

I did the precautionary measures (sprayed the cyclinders and put metho in the tank) and w...
