My fuel pump works perfect,until it rains or truck gets washed in other words when ever it gets wet.No matter if the tank is full or half full. First the low fuel light will come on, then the the needle will drop to empty.Then the engine warning light will come on.Tried tighting the gas cap,doesn't help. It want work again until it ts dry again.What is my problem? How do donate a fee?

sounds like you may have some kind of pressure leak in the evap system. check all hoses coming from the evap canister. something must be pinched cracked or completely disconnected . also have you fuel cap pressure tested or just replace it and see if it cures your problem. let us know what happens. if you want to donate, then click on the donate button. its a very secure way to make a donation.
