When the temp outside is 90 or higher and humid and i have  less than a 1/2 tank of gas
my car will just shut down.  then after about 15/30 mins it will start and run ok.  But, the
first hot day this year my tank was full and i had my granbaby with me on hwy no lights
come on dash and alot of guessing is going on, from a pinhole in the evap system to the
silonoid to the canister i don't know?
