Fuel Line Recall

Just wondering if any fellow NTEC Evo X owners have gotten this corrected yet. If so, where did you get it done, and how long did it take?

I have it schedule today at Don Hering at 1:00, they said it could take, depending on how hot the car is, from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours. Sam also got a bunch of the parts in to perform the corrections.

they might have to take the UICP off, so if they do, be sure to recheck the tightness on it.

Reggie, if it take 15 minutes and they are paid an hour, they're going to do it in 15 and move on, they'll still get paid the hour

They might have been draining the line or waiting for the fuel to evaporate.

Or were just taking a smoke break lol.

Well, I had a pretty good experience at Lewisville. Once again customer service was fantastic. They fixed the fuel line and the hood latch in 30 minutes. They also washed and vaccumed my car for me since it was dirty (all of the fantastic rain we have been getting lately...). I suggest you guys go check them out, I was in and out.

I had my fuel line recall done at Don Herring along with an oil change. They did a great job. I support Don Herring because he supports NTEC.
