Hello,

Any good mechanics located in Hayward, Union City, or Fremont area to look at my 2000 Mustang?

Need some good quality, honest work for a gas tank leak. It leaks after I gas up at 1/2 tank.

Most shops I called want to charge over $ 150 just to look at it and then over $ 150 to fix.

Any good mechanic recomendations? Thank you.

Rubber Fuel filler neck gasket usually is leaking. Easy to fix yourself.

FOX GT is right all of these mustangs have a problem with the filler neck rubber gasket that goes on the side of the tank and where the filler neck goes in.It will take you about an hour to change.Part at ford is $24.Let me know.
