Pressure in the fuel system?
I have been using the car daily for the last few years without any problems but since moving house and hauling quite a few boxes around in it there seems to be a pressure build up in the tank.
When i get the car out of the garage in the morning there is a strong smell of fuel but without any tell tale signs of leaking.Driving to and from work there is no running problems as far as i can tell.When i went to fuel up the car there was a "wooshing" sound from the tank which i put down to the fuel level being low.After driving about 18 miles home i decided to see if there was still pressure in the tank,taking the fuel cap off resulted in a small amount of fuel spitting from the fuel filler!!
The smell of fuel is strong when you stick your head close to the drivers side rear wheel but there is no signs of fuel leaking??
Will investigate over the weekend but just thought that you might be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Sean
