For some reason, the fuel filler tubes on some off the early 90's Rangers tend to crack with time. This allows gas fumes to escape and is a common cause of failure for the California smog as the EVAP system has a leak and is not supposed to.
Dropping the tank and replacing the fuel filler tube (and probably the fuel pump for good measure) is the typical fix but I wonder if anyone has a quick and cheap fix that has helped to pass the test? Something like resealing the cracked tube with an outer pipe, even duct tape...?
