That little switch caused me all kinds of problems. It made my car hard to fill up, hard to start, and flooded it once. It even made the AOS throw a code when it flooded.
If I had known, I might have ordered a new reed switch and installed it along with the filler valve to head off any future issues. At the moment, I can't seem to find a part number for the little bugger. Did you replace yours?

UPDATE: I may have found the part number: 996 613 224 01 (looks like around $20 from Pelican). Not sure how to install -- assume it's a splice.
