I finally moved and have a garage. Of course the C-10 lives in there and my DD is outside

Anyway, I never noticed because it sat outside, but man, the gas smell in the garage is overpowering.

I have the 1967, but I think a PO must have replaced the tank, I think it may be a couple years newer.

I have a vented cap. There is another vent that was coming off the tank. I ran a hose from that out under the vehicle.

Anyone know how I can get rid of the smell? Are there filters or something that should be on the end of the hose I put under the vehicle. Should I get a vented cap? I'm sure they didn't smell like this from the factory!

Thanx
