I just went through a major hose change. All the hoses at the pump and filter, and one that runs to the tank. Take out the back seat and remove 4 screws holding down the metal plate on the right side. Under it is the tank connections. There is a seal there too.
Degrease the area both at the tank and the fuel pump/filter area first and you'll see whats going on better.

Hey guys,

my gas tank is always letting off a lot of gasoline fumes right after I fill er up. Anyway to replace the seals? Or is the smell/leak coming from somewhere else other than the seals? TIA
