Here is the quote I received from Grapevine Ford on the part's cost to fix my capless fuel inlet. I think I will remove the neck this week to see if there is not some way I can fix the inlet without buying a whole new setup.

Which vehicle is this on? Are you saying that the inlet hose is currently unable to accept the cap?

This is for the 2010 Explorer. It is a capless system. There is a little flap on the inside that keeps a vacuum for the EVAP. That flap has failed and has left me with a CEL for 2 months now. I've been lazy with fixing it, but the other day the flap moved in a way that would not allow me to add gas. I finally got it to work, but only after pushing it back in.

Must be just out of warranty, then?

Ya it is. I also have a electrical problem in the front end of the vehicle. That is a low priority though since it only effects the cabin lights.

I feel your pain, both of my Fords have electrical issues.

Try owning a BMW.

Negative. No BMWs. I've heard way to many horror stories.

Try owning an Audi, and not loving it.

Are you having electrical issues?

So after buying the part I pulled the part I needed from the whole neck harness. I figured it would be easier then dropping the tank to install the whole dang thing. I transplanted the part I needed to. Unfortunately, I made a trip down to Lampasas and I got another CEL. This time it is a small EVAP leak. I'm not 100% sure where it is. Hopefully, i do not have to change the whole neck out.
