So Mr Zigmund :stupid

We got a fuel smell (gas) on the 95 325. Kinda comes and goes. Found a few small seeping type leaks on some hoses but I think I got them all fixed. Still stinking abit.

These things have fuel canisters :stupid

I couldn't find one. I'm thinking it may be saturated or something.

Most common I think would be hoses and the pump and sender seals on top of the tank. Most times there is an access portal under the back seat. You may have to cut away some tarlike insulation.
rare we had issues with the evap canister. More likely the cloth covered hoses getting hard and not sealing well.
The smell can linger too once it saturates into any of the seat padding.
That was always fun to explain :rolleyes

Oh goody playing with flamables :flamed

I saw the gaskets you talking about on a pic of the tank and they seem pretty basic to change so it should only take me about a week :break

Thats just getting the seat out :pirate

Well got this done yesterday, actually pretty cut and dry. Got a little fumigated working in the car with all the fumes :alien

But hitting a piece of metal with another piece a metal around all the fumes and fuel probally wasn't the smartest thing to do :eek

Did you see anything obvious Kevin?
Like most jobs you dread, its just a matter of putting your head down and going after it.
