Hey all. Quick question. I've got a 93' 240 with 178k. Filled it up the tank other day with gas (very nice getting out of there while three SUV mom's read their books while waiting). Anyhow, after getting home and after the car sat in the hot sun for 10 minutes, I noticed a gas smell and discovered a very slight fuel drip from the charcoal canister? I never seen that before on any of my three other 240s. I thought it had something to do with the fill up. I took the car for a 10 minute ride and came home and no drips? I'm guessing it's time to replace the canister? Any other suggestions? Thanks, Rob
