...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!

as a new owner...
its worth telling you in case you do not know... the factory fuel lines down the tunnel (feed line and return line) are both a special type of clear vinyl. pretty robust actually but they can crack and leak also you usually smell this because its inside the cockpit area and VERY GOOD IDEA to also replace these 2 lines they are OLD.... and PLASTIC... most people find them to be very brittle when they go to remove them. |
