Thanks for Pop remedy?

[Jim <huanacaxtle@xxxxxxx>]

On the Mysterious irregular occassional Pop that my car would do:   The simplest things sometimes are the most intriguing mysteries. I took my "vented" gas cap off and drove the car on the freeway again. It never poped once. Wha-huh? Went home and drilled four small holes in the gas cap until I can get to auto parts store. Everything seems to be hunky dory now. Thanks for the suggestions guys. That's why I am here,
