Where do our gas tanks vent from? I've been having a persistent problem with my fuel pump boot popping off since day 1. I always thought it was do to an improper installation but it has been done at least a half dozen times and not all by me.
The reason I ask tis is today I was using the car most of the day and the tank was full right from the start. By the end of the afternoon I started to smell gas from the tank area. So I went home to see if the boot had popped off again but to my surprise it was tight. However the top of the tank was wet with gas.
My only theory at this point is the tank is not venting properly and the hot gas is pressurizing in the tank? If its as simple as replacing the gas cap I'll try that first. But would like some forum feedback first.
Thanks
