Question
i installed a new pump. at which time gas started leaking out of the purge selonid. at canister.was`nt leaking before pump change.could i have hook up the line`s to pump worng?

Answer
Hi Tony,

Sounds like that may be the solution. There should be three lines (I'm assuming 4dr) the line furthest from the wheel-well is the pressure, the middle one will be the high-pressure vapor-recovery and the one closest will be the fuel return. There is a small plastic nipple on the front of the tank too and that should run to the CC canister also as low-pressure vapor recovery.

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
