View Full Version : Gas leaks, and gas smells!!
I am having some gas issues, i.e. smelling gas in garage coming from car. When I first got car from builder gas was pouring out of the gas tank, enough to fill a turkey roast pan overnight. Car was shipped back to builder who informed me that it was a defective O-ring on top of tank from FFR. Well no visible gas leak now, however, when you park car in garage overnight and open garage door in the AM you are hit with a very bad gas smell. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated before my house blows up.
I would switch to the Boyd tank if I were you.

See if there is a vent tube. It should run alongside the gas filler hose. It might be open to the atmosphere. If it is, plug the end with a small charcoal filter canister for an aquarium.

PS I was a fan of Mark Donohue also.
Not as easy as said. Hard top is on, windshield is in, car is finished and painted. Car was set up for only hard top etc.

Jack. I will call you tomorrow. I got your message. BTW I was parked right next to you at the Bass Pro shop on Thursday. Looked for the owner but never saw you. I was driving black Corvette Z06
