Also, there is a rubber gasket between the tank and the scupper...After 30+ years, it gets cracked and distorted...Easily replaced $9.00 at most vendors that we all know and love...
It will allow fumes to seep into the car via holes in the front bulkhead... 2-OH! |

It will allow fumes to seep into the car via holes in the front bulkhead... 2-OH! I had the same problem that overnight the vapors in the cabin where outrageous. It came on all of a sudden and was more noticable on the twisty back roads. My lines to the vapor tank ( not sure what it is called ) cracked and was not routed properly. Thanks to Ken Schipper and others at WCR, I was able to route the lines properly, cut off the cracked end of the hose and reconnect it. Vapors were gone. Attached thumbnail(s) |
