this seems rediculous, the dealership says my chunk is shot , says the piece comes as a unit , i need a salvage unit any one got one ,my 04 only had 67,000 when this happened.
For us guys who no nothing about cars and trucks, what is a "chunk"?

It is right next to the canooter valve. It is located in the back left section of the engine bay and responsible for monitoring your ethanol/alcohol mix. When the chunk goes, the canooter valve opens. You can tell it happened because the you'll open the hood and see that it has sprayed chunks everywhere. Good luck finding a salvaged one. It might have to do with what type of fuel you are using. A nice glass of milk and two Tums or Prevacid always seem to help. Stay away from the everclear.

My chunk is still good, just checked it the other day when I was topping of my blinker fluid.

The chunk keeps the blinker fluid circulating, if the chunk goes the blinker fluid runs out, you will see it as the bright orange fluid on the ground. You then have to replace the chunk and then refill the blinker fluid, (according to my dealer it runs about $100 an ounce). So pray it does not happen to you. It happened last week to me, but it was covered under warranty...WHEW
No, No, No.. the chunk is right next to the Pfetzer valve. You can fix it yourself with some replacement ball bearings and 4 quarts of Prestone. No, make that Quakerstate. (that will be funny to anyone whose ever seen 'Fletch')

I would bet only someone from Alabama would know that...

Actually that's what they called it when i lived in Louisiana. I never heard of a pumpkin (other than Charlie Brown's kind) until I moved to Alabama.
