Re: Fuel leak when fill it up
Guys, thanks for the replies.
More information so I'll try to get as much as possible in here..
I took it to a garage. He said that the fuel sender was loose so he said he had tightened it up. He wasnt sure what he had done would work. I filled it up again and it was still pouring out.
I suspect he meant the fuel pump!
Bob. I would have thought the leak would have been nearer the rear wheel if that was the case. The leak is literally in the middle of the car underneath. However, I'm still open to your suggestion as a possibility so I'll have a look.
CREWZIN. My electronic manual says the pump is on the top of the tank
I rang a dealer who said he'd have a look, didnt know what it could possibly be but said he'd have a look. The hourly rate is £82.50. I'd like to have more information about what the problem actually is before anybody starts digging around my car for that sort of money.
So I guess the options are...
Either bite the bullet and get a dealer to sort it,
OR, drop the tank myself, have a look, put it back together again, get the appropriate bits, drop the tank again and fix it myself.
If I do the latter, I'll take pictures and post a description of the problem.
rebelcruzer - sounds good to me.
Thanks for all your help guys
All the very best
Tony
