2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer Crack In Fuel Tank

pull the fuel tap out from under the fuel tank and check for a blocked filter on the end of it.

1) you might want to check the fuel filler tube to see if there any rust, resulting in fuel leaking out whenever you filled the tank.
2) check the fuel tank fill-up hose (sill hose) might have a hole- causing fuel leak when filling up the gas tank.
3) you might want to contact your dealer, there was a recall regarding the tank filler pipe and cap problems.

check at joint between engine and gen, its usually the engine oil seal need replacing u will need to split engine from gen, and replace the oil seal

When you say it only leaks when you fill it up - do you mean WHILE you are at the pump, adding fuel to the tank , or WHEN the tank is full??
If it happens during refueling, the filler neck may have rusted allowing some fuel passing thru it en route to the tank to leak out. The filler neck can be replaced - and may even be subject of a recall. Contact you dealer to make sure it hasn't been recalled for these types of problems before spending *your* money to fix a manufacturer's defect.
Many times, this indicates a tank that has a hole near the top of the tank - which is much better than one at the bottom. There are products - and professionals - that can repair (or replace) these problems / parts. Locating and accessing the hole can be another story however.
Removing the tank for repair / replacement can cause you to incur additional expenses to replace fuel senders, etc. that seem to be fragile enough to break during removal.

There are many products available at auto parts stores that are made to fix active leaks in fuel tanks. Go to one and ask!

ford had a recall for this in 88-89. the recall was for a defective changeover valve mounted on the drivers frame rail. check to see if it has a small galvanized valve or the larger black one. if it still has the black one. its a bad valve. return from pump is pumpingf fuel to the oposite tank. go to a junk yard and find one with the newer valve is your best bet. or use on tank like i am. i disconnected my rear tank. still have,nt figured out how to wire my gas guage though. hope this helps someone.

you may have a seam leaking on the tank it self, you need to get someone to pressure test the tank for cracks, some kawasakis had recalls on leaking fuel tanks not sure if the meanie was one of them but i know some of the vn1500's drifters i believe had these issues. check with your local dealer or the kawi website about the recall, it might be a seal but most likely a leaking tank seam.
