[AT] Right to repair

[HERBERT METZ]

I agree with Steve; however I still remember the below comment a co-worker (decades ago) occasionally mentioned;  "It is widely claimed that in 1899 the head of the Patent Office sent his resignation to Pres. McKinley that the Patent Office should be closed 'because everything that could possibly be invented has been invented' ".   Herb(GA)

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.

There's an "umbrella" looking maybe 6" diameter surrounding the nozzle.  Not sealing in any way.  The hose is "coaxial".  Inner flows fuel, outer is vapor.  They pull a small vacuum to draw in the fumes.
