So... Last night when I went outside to put the top on the 914 I notice a fuel smell, so I get down on the ground and try to smell and I'm pretty sure I can smell gas. After I get up I realise there is a gas can sitting next to the car, and since I was drunk I decided that was probably it.
This morning I go to check it out again, and I can see some fuel coming from the under the tank area. Having just pulled the tank to relocate the fuel pump underneath it I assumed that the new connections are leaking.
I pull the tank and the new connections and fuel lines look fine, but the connections that come out of the tank are wet.
Then I notice a wet spot on the side of the tank, and you can see where it has been running down and wetting the connections on the bottom of the tank.
It looks like the tank is probably leaking, now likely is this to happen?
Is there a chance that it was coming from the little braided tube that runs from the filler neck to the flat metal thingy on top of the tank, it was hanging loose.
What do I do now?
Do I need a new tank or should I get some sealant for the inside of the tank.
