Sniffin' gas

[CJohn7]

At the rear of my Yota I can smell gas, so I take it into the dealer. They say the tank is rusted and cracked and the fuel line is cracked as well. $1300 they want to fix it. I said, suck what? I checked the gas cap and the tank was pressurized, so how can my tank be cracked? I'll check the lines when I get it back tomorrow. Any other thoughts on what I should look for?

I got a yota too man. Bought it for $250 bucks. For that price I'd just buy a "new" one. :lol:

I can beat that price if interested. :wink:

How bout a Jeep question next time.....

I know, I know...its the dang Yota that keeps breakin' down believe it or not. Its only got 220k miles too, I know I can squeeze another 30 or so out of her.

Check your gas lines under the vehicle. If your tank is holding pressure then the tank is likely fine. I am not familiar with where the filter is but it could just be the rubber lines that connect to your fuel filter. There is also a couple rubber fuel lines attaching to the top of the tank for the vent's etc.
