Here is a weird one......I filled my '73 2.0 last weekend for first time in a while and drove around and then home. Next day late noticed gas dripping from under front of car. I had relocated my fuel pump up front next to steering rack years ago. So being late I figure I can siphon the gas into cans next morning. Well, gas tank was bone dry by then. Over ten gallons of gas down the drain (literally). So I jack car up and take off skid pan were everything is and get a light and do an inspection....see nothing noticeable. I start pouring in gas to see where it will leak from....first a gallon, then another, then another and still no leak? I have my son start car while I am under it and still no leak! Will some one please explain this to me?
Thank you very much. gg |
