Description of the problem | Strong odor of gasoline inside van... I contacted previous owner,he had same issue,told me he had it checked out at a garage,they said no leaks in fuel system,& told him the wind blows the smell into the cab of van....... He told me that he would smell gas inside of van when driving with window open,i just had window slightly open,went about a mile,my wife got sick from strong gas odor,so we turned around and headed home.... I can not smell due to having my sinuses severed in a motorcycle crash 10 yrs ago,so lucky my wife was with me to smell it,,,i was just about to light a cigar,we would have blown up........ I've had this van for a week now,i never had this issue till now.... But previous owner said it happened many times for him,of and on in the 8 years he owned it. |
