I'm back on-line!
After a month without an internet connection at the house, I'm finally back on-line...but I need help. My car is burning gas and I smell alot of gas vapors under the hood and sometime inside the car itself. Is it possible for the charcoal cylinder to go bad/need swapping?

I suppose it's possible, but the first thing to check is all the fuel hoses. Maybe just replace them all -- 5/16" fuel injection line and new fuel injection clamps aren't that expensive. Fuel leaks are scary.

I say check your charcoal canister hoses. The charcoal canister is the black cylinder sitting right over by your right headlight with two hoses coming off of it. This is what gathers your gas fumes from your tank, so if there's a leak you will definitely smell fuel.
