I think there is a thread on 306.net explaining exactly how to get rid of them. Be careful though chap, wouldn't want you to die early now

Be careful though chap, wouldn't want you to die early now It means your evap solenoid is stuck open and the engine is sucking the air out of the fuel tank, mine did it a few years ago and it took me a while to work out what was going on. ________________________________________ When I've got time I forget what I wanted to do, and when I remember what I wanted to do, I have no time!
