fuel smell

Post by ally »

hello again!

I can smell fuel when i get out of my van after a drive..

I've recently secured the breather pipe so thats ok, might it be the overflows under the wheel arches? That's what it was before on my old van.

Most likely, was the cause on mine. The pipes were completely rotten - missed by the MOT too.
Why does the not quite finished job before last always conspire with the not quite started job after next to make what you should be doing now harder?

May be worth reading this bit

Fuel filler
1989 VW T25 Holdsworth Villa 3

It's got a VW motor, a 116.8 cubic inch plant, Michelin tyres, VW suspension, VW shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new RedSquirrel bus or what?
