Fuel tank venting question?
I just started putting miles on the bug (1302) and am getting bad raw fuel smell when the fuel sloshes a bit. I've checked for leaks and can't find anything, and when you open the trunk you get a blast of fuel smell.
For venting I have a 1/2" or so hose on the filler side connecting to the filler spout to vent air when filling, and on the non-filler side there are two small 3/16"? ports on the back that I have t'eed together going up to the bodywork and then that comes down and through into the wheel well. I'll try and get a picture The gas door has been shaved so you have to open the trunk to fill it. There is a silicon 90 elbow off the tank connect to the filler cap assembly. It seems there is a smell coming from that elbow but I can't see a leak. Any ideas? How do you guys have your venting setup? Mike
