mario_82_ZXT Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Well, I'm now getting a terrible fuel smell and leak after hard driving my Z. It looks like the hoses at the top of the fuel tank in the 78 Z have finally cracked, and last I remember they either cost an arm and a leg or were NLA. Since this car will be MS'd and is registered where no smogging is required, I'd like to get rid of this garbage... So what do I need to do to get rid of it? Take the expansion tank out, leave a line from the top of the tank to the filler neck to get rid of bubbles, and put a filter on line in the front (where the charcoal canister was at)? Or cap all the lines (except have the one between tank and filler neck) and drill a hole in my gas cap? Mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario_82_ZXT Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Nothing at all? Is this not the right section? If it matters the smell is more apparent after hard left turns... I don't want to seal my tank up and make it liable to explode if I get rear ended... Mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
