- Hi all. While I was waxing my car, I noticed a petrol smell at the rear left
- wheel (that's where the filler cap is). Verified that the cap was good
- (borrowed new cap), so that leaves the hoses at the base of the filler pipe,
- and assorted fuel return lines.
-
- Is there any method of checking for petrol leaks? I don't know if the leak is
- from the joints between the hoses, or if the hoses themselves leak.
-
- Thanks
