Re: Gas smell

On a Vette I had, I changed the gas tank and had a heck of a time chasing a gas smell. It turned out to be gas wicking up the threads of the bolts for the sending unit. I used Honda Bond on the threads and both sides of the gasket and the problem was solved. You can pressurize the system with a bicycle pump to keep the pressure to a couple of PSI and spray soapy water to find where you have the seepage.
