You will have to drop the tank to gain access to the tank unit seal to change. while there check other seals like the vent sensor.

SOURCE: Help with gas fumes smell

Was fuel smell present before you had fuel pump replaced? If yes I would sugest you drop tank and see if fuel vent hose is plugged forcing fuel back pressure line to vent through cap. If fuel smell was not present before you replaced fuel pump and seal. I would suggest you drop tank back out and check all fittings and hose conections. also if you still have old sending unit you could check to make sure they are exactly the same. As Sometimes you have to pull relief valve from old sending unit and install it in the new one, as some sending units wont have one in it. and some will have one that is regulated at a different fuel pressure. hope this helps Vic

SOURCE: fuel smell

2003 Altima smelled like gas on the outside near right rear wheel. Asked mechanic to take a look and said it was fuel pump, had a crack in it. Would cost $550 parts and labor. Found video online on how to change fuel pump under back seat. Ordered part online for $150, shop wanted $350. Changed fuel pump in about 30 min if that. Couldnt believe how simple. Mechanic was right, when I took off plate under seat, could see gas on top of fuel pump. Fixed.

Where is the fuel filter located on dodge charger 2008 2.7L?

It's on the fuel pump inside the gas tank. You don't need to change it. they are designed to last the life of the fuel pump.

I can't open the gas tank panel on a Dodge Charger

There is a fuel filler door release switch on the driver's side door in the map pocket. The fuel filler door will pop open when the switch is pressed. It is closed manually.

If this system is malfunctioning, a manual release is located in the trunk. Remove the access cover which is located on the left-side inner trim panel and pull the release cable. The fuel filler door will pop open.

I cant fill up gas tank

normally the pump stops the nozzle from pumping gas,your gas tank is full. bypassing this safety feature is not reccomended as the tank will become over pressurized and eventually you will smell gas around your vechicule due to a blown seal between the tank and filler neck.

Inside the cabin strong gas smell after fill up for approx 50 miles. 2003 Honda Odyssey 85k miles.

do you have the same fuel economy as before or does you gas last less miles than before. if you can smell gas whether the car is running or NOT that means you have a leak in your fuel system if it was not a leak, you would not smell it when not running . first thing is check under vehicle after overnight parking and see if there is fuel on the ground if there is , this will give you a starting point where to look for gas leak. Plugged, dirty or poorly connected fuel injector; Leaking fuel filter or fuel filter connections; Punctured or damaged fuel tank; Loose or poorly connected fuel pump; Gas in gas can in trunk.

Gas leaking on top of tank

its most likely either broke the seal on the halfway of the tank or the fill spout has become damaged and needs replacement. id start by testing the pressure of the tank then deciphering whether or not its the tank or the fill spout.
