Check the Fitting at the Tank
My leak or smell was from the 90 degree fitting coming out of the tank. You may need to remove a plate in the trunk for access. It did not leak enough to notice any undercar anomalies as it was just enough to make that fitting damp and cause a gas smell. I refitted the brass 90 using Teflon Tape. So.... if this is it, then I would pull off the gas line to drain the tank..... toss that gas into your daily driver along with any old chain saw gas from last fall. Add 2-3 gallons of new hi-test to test with and let it set over overnight. If you try to use some type of goop that is suppose to harden at the fitting ...it will not work because the remaining gas in the tank will make a mess of it.... just ask me why I know that. Make sure the roll say's it's Teflon Tape right on it. BTY...any smell of gas is a bad thing and should be investigated. These cars take a big hit when they catch fire.
