Default 1996 fuel system question
With warmer weather here in chicago I have a question about my fuel cap: is the C4 cap vented or not? I removed my gas cap today and lots of air escaped. Sort of like a gas can if you dont flip open the vent. Is this normal? thanks.

That's normal and the way it should work. Most cars do work the same way. The pressure is controlled by the E-vap valve usually.
