Angry Help

I have a 2000 GT, my check engine light is on and according to the code I have been told I have an evap leak (a small hole in one of the hoses) I was also told the only place I can take the car is to the dealership to get it fixed. Does anyone know anything on this subject.If so how much am I looking at spending.

Re: Help

well dont take it to a stealership. they will probably charge you $400 in labor charges alone.
