As the title says, this past week I've had pretty strong gas fumes in the cabin. This has been ever since I filled up with gas. So, at first I thought I just spilled some when filling up, but the smell has lasted for a week. I'm wondering if I don't have the cap sealed properly, but it's pretty hard not to twist the cap back on. Is it possible that the cap gasket is worn (although it looks fine to me), or ...?
When I raise the bonnet and sniff around, the smell is pretty strong right around the gas cap area, so I know it's coming from somewhere around there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
