...to be getting a fairly strong fuel smell in the frunk? I can smell it pretty good in the garage. Having the car inspected Friday but just wondering if this is typical. Thanks!

Service records show fuel tank, sender & fluid...along with all hoses were replaced in 2009 - 4,000 miles ago. Sounds like those hoses should be replaced, at a minimum...

Yes that would be a good idea,filler neck gasket as mentioned and don't forget the gas cap seal there are 2 types year dependant,if you have the plastic cap don't buy the cardboard seal like I bought from Pelican....pretty much useless after a while. 914rubber should all or most of the parts you need,good luck. |
