Hi Steve,
That makes sense, to somehow contain the stream, it's not a lot, maybe
10-15 ml, but that happens to every car all day 24/7 at this station.
I've seen those snorkel devices, but zero stations around here have
them. In fact I don't Michigan has any.  I understand why the sensors
need to be on there, for emissions, and all, but, but it shouldn't cost
$300 to replace. At some point they will reach the point of diminishing
returns on emissions, and they will price cars out of most people's
price range. A car is only going to run so clean, and I believe, we are
at or close to that point.
