Tim Burrows Hi, There is the option of being the filling hose to the tank, but the safest thing is the gasoline pump, the cap is made of plastic and over the years it makes small cracks and throws the gasoline

Could a leak of this nature also happen if you car is left parked at an angle? (e.g. - The right side of the car is tilted slightly higher than the left.) I filled my tank on Friday, didn't drive over the weekend, and Sunday afternoon my neighbor let me know it looked like I was leaking oil. The only problem with that was that it was at the wrong end (you could see a slow drip off of the fuel tank at the rear of the SUV), and it REEKED like gas. I'm assuming (hoping) for now that the dark color is just gunk/crud that's built up underneath getting rinsed by the fuel. I moved the car to a level spot, let it sit for about 30 min, and the dripping stopped. (Hopefully it's not just pooling somewhere else now.) I'm bringing my car in tomorrow, but this video at least gives me some hope that I'm not about to have to drop a whole ton of money on something crazy just over a month away from Christmas.
@OzMechanics4 жыл бұрын
You shouldn’t have any leak. Tank is a closed system that makes sure all the gas stays in place. You might just have a break or leak
