    Okay

    I have a 96 850 Wagon and the blasted service light keeps coming on. So
    far I've sent $700.00 fixing the problems. The latest error is 0455 I
    think- Minor leak in fuel evaporation unit - somehting like that...
    Mechanic has tested every component and nothing is wrong but the
    blasted light keeps coming on.

    Anybody had experience with this one?

    Regards
    Russ

    If the fuel cap tests good then find a shop with a smole machine so that
    they can find the leak in the evap system.

    On my '96 850 sedan this was caused by a degraded rubber fuel line at
    the top of the fuel tank. Cost for the part, under $5.00. Cost for
    labor at the dealer .... over $400!
