    Link to my thread on a different forum.

    Check your fuel pump, fuel gauge, and transfer pump o-rings etc in other words.

      Arg... new gas cap does NOTHING! Nothing! Oh well time to start ordering gaskets. Took a look at where the fuel pump is but nothing looks wet....

          Ok found it, its coming from fuel pump/level sensor gasket. The gas dries quickly so I had to drive around with the cover off to see the gas flowing out. Should be able to fix that stuff today.

            nice!! I hope that's the same problem I'm having.

            Although, with all the leaking gas.....who knows how corroded the tank has become....might have to just pony up and replace it in a couple years.....or sooner :(

                It was a pretty easy fix once I found the leak, but now I've got a huge chip in my front glass! Thanks to the long drive to the dealer..... oh well

                  check the fuel filter? trace the leak from beneath the car....
