I will have my "mechanic" check it out. When this started happening i had taken my car in because my engine light came on. They said it was a problem with my gas cap, so I had it replaced. Went to pick her up and immediately noticed the top resisting to shut. I took it to a friends who forced it to close, which I was completely against. I will check into what you recommended and get back to you. You don't happen to live in Callie, do you
