Toyota Innova Gas Tank woes

[kristine123]

I got everything from Toyorama. Best Sunday magpickup, kasi open din sila 9 to 12nn.
Filler Cap - 1450
Charcoal Canister - 8080
Tank - 14670

Filler cap housing removed. Dirty filter mesh shown.

[ Guess the new design does not need it...or they found the cause of the negative pressure.

Natatanggal din po yung plastic kung saan naka lagay ang filter mesh... Ang pangit lang ay medyo maluwang na sya pag ibalik.

kung ma open mo po yun, may dalawang spring sa loob... malaki at maliit...

malaking spring is the positive pressure at ang maliit na spring is the negative pressure ( air going in ), ito ang pinutulan ko yung maliit na spring.

kung di ako nagkamali more than half ang naputol ko... hinila ko lang ang spring para close pa rin sya kahit naputulan. (wag masyado hilain, tamang tama lang para ma close lang sya.)

observe the tank kung mag deform pa rin... bawas kapag same lang.

Ngayon, ang naririnig ko na lang is the positive pressure from the tank...wala ng negative pressure... which is normal. No more deforming sa tank every biyahe.

Same spot saan nag warp ang tank ko.... buti na lang naagapan ko.

I think di na kailangan putulin yung spring. just remove the mesh ok na.

pwede po ba mag request ng short video clip na uploaded sa youtube kung pano dis-assembly yung fuel tank cap?
medyo hindi po kasi ako skilled pa sa DIY. advance thanks po...

+1, this is the workaround solution I got from TMBC while I'm awaiting the replacement parts (tank, charcoal canister and filler cap).

Medyo mahirap, but doable sa mga DIY'ers, you just need patience and 2 jewelers screw drivers to pry open and skewed the plastic sides.

Man i tried observing the filler cap last weekend.

I don't know where and how to start dismantling, i gave up.

I experienced fuel leak 2 times on same spot

beneath the front metal strap, same spot.

You just need to figure out separating the white assembly from the black housing/cover, after you separate the white assembly it would be easy to access the inner parts like filter mess.

Eto ang hindi ko alam pano gagawin.
