Re: fuel smell

We just hashed the same issue over on a rig on the Hamb with the same problem. Answer is the same. A charcoal cansiter out of a mid 70's GM should be easy to find and I've never heard of anyone replacing them because they went bad. You do want to replace the little filter pad that goes on top though. Tuck it in up front (find one the right size) and run the lines and put a non vented cap on the rig.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
