Hi All.
I have 2 cars. My driver is a 75 and a restoration project 74 car. My 75 often stinks of gas. I don't think there are any leaks. I never see fuel anywhere only a smell. The 74 I have has a carbon canister and hoses to the engine. These run thru the fenfer well on the driver's side. The 75 has none of this. There are no holes for hoses to run to the engine. The picture shows my expansion tank. The single hose runs out of the tank to vent under the car just below the spare tire. Mark |

75-76 had a small plastic hose that went from the expansion tank to the engine compartment. The charcoal canister is in the engine bay. It is a different shape than the 74 and earlier. the two breather hoses are contained in the engine bay so there is no need for holes in the fender and body or to run the hoses up to a cannister over the gas tank.
