what's the problem it doesn't want to take in gas at the pump, very slow input

FordNut answered 9 years ago

EVAP problem. Any gas that goes in to tank the air and fumes must be displaced out. It goes in to the charcoal canister, and any vent valve that is stuck or clogged will cause that. Click this image

The air and fumes pass through activated charcoal. Most of the raw hydrocarbons are absorbed by the charcoal and the air vents out. Then when you start your car, the intake vacuum purges the hydrocarbons out back in to intake to be burned instead of being released in to the air

Lexus 2001, door lock actuators / solenoid for each of (4) doors? Where can I purchase actuators for each door? Drivers, Passenger Front, Left Rear, Right Rear doors?The DLA-219 shown on most aftermarket firms is designed only for Left Rear Door...I had my skilled certified mechanic that works at Toyota Dealer Service, to verify parts and in fact each part is specific to each door and not interchangeable from left to right or front to rear doors. Lexus/Toyota new @ $280/ or $150.00 rebuilt at local shop. I was told not to buy from "Pick-a-Part" junk car yard, since high % are end-of-life and labor to remove & install is a consideration...Does anyone know of a confirmed source for aftermarket of (4) individual part item for each door?
