I recently purchased a 1991 318i Touring off BaT and it’s absolutely immaculate. I’ve been driving it around a lot since purchasing, but started noticing after filling it up it smells like gas for a few days when standing anywhere near the car.
I wasn’t sure if this was a bad fuel pump seal or something more straightforward, but I noticed there’s no access panel like there is under the rear seat of E30 coupes. Is it in a different location on the tourings, or is my only option dropping the gas tank to check it?
Is this a common problem among E30’s that has a known typical solution? I can’t pinpoint a location, but it’s definitely not coming from the engine bay.
