Thanks guys!

I'm going to replace all hoses and if need be the tank as well. I think it might have a small leak in it. Would make sense since the only time I smell the gas is when I am driving the car hard or the tank is full.


the hoses from the gas filler tube vent into a vapor collector inside the trunk ... up under shelf near right wheel well. the hoses might leak... the plastic vapor tank may leak. try those.
