I got some disappointing news today. The last few times I took Dasher-1 to be refueled the attendant had great difficulty filling the tank. The nozzle from the pump would shut off – even when the tank was empty. The last time, I couldn’t put more than half a tank in.
It was just too aggravating so I took it to the Honda dealership today.
Ouch.
They couldn’t fix it as they’ll have to order the parts, but it’s going to be VERY expensive. It has something to do with the emissions system and a valve on the fuel tank. To fix it they have to remove the fuel tank. To remove the fuel tank, they have to remove the rear suspension. The car will be off the street for more than a day. It’s a lot of labor.
Well I held a little pity party for myself for about 30 minutes and then scheduled to have the work done.
Since I’m flying out to Michigan over the Thanksgiving holidays, I’ll drop Dasher-1 off at the dealership and then pick it up upon my return.
Sigh.
