Hopefully I'm posting to the list. My garage reaks from petrol yet I see none on the floor. My fuel gauge seems to drop even though I'm not driving. Could a worn out gas cap gasket be causing so much

INMHO, not likely. You don't say what kind of car, but I would suspect the carbs first. Gas leaking from the carbs may not make it to the floor. There are a lot of places for it to collect and it ev

Shouldn't think so. Mine is fairly tired, but I don't have this problem. The only fuel loss I have ever had came from a loose clip on the rubber section of the fuel line. Petrol, evaporates very fast

It can be quite spectacular, and completely painless. Petrol volatilises so fast that it never gets the chance to start to oxidise your flesh. Guess how I know. And no, I didn't do it deliberately...

I finally discovered the source of the gasoline odor in the garage that has been driving SWMBO nuts. I looked everywhere under the hood but everything was dry. Getting under the car, I found the area

Treating the threads will not help, as the threads are not what seals this joint. Replace the brass olive on the fuel line, preferably with the correct one from TRF, et al. The ones you get at the lo

If I remember correctly, that is a compression fitting. Could the threads be cross-threaded? Check the flange and the brass compression washer or whatever it is called for nicks. Same thing on the f

You probably don't need to replace the fuel pump, but I'd replace the pump diaphragm- that's the piece o' rubber that does the actual pumping, and it's replacable. It's my guess that the diaphragm ha

Paul, not a big problem on the fuel pump. Sounds as if the screws just worked loose. If it does not leak and the fuel is flowing freely after you tightened them I wouldn't worry. If it loosens again
