Want this question answered?
An earthquake could easily break a gas line, and the resulting gas leak could cause a fire or an explosion. But bear in mind that it is also possible to turn off the gas to any given gas line, so it may be possible to avoid the worst consequences.
there was a recall done on this car as i had one. problem with fuel filler hose. take to dealership. done for free. if this has been done then u need to check the rubber fuel hoses as they tend to go bad. i had to replace a few of those two. third possibility is bad fuel injectors that are leaking. dont wait. dangerous. Have your gas line checked. It could have a small hole in it. I had the same problem with my car. The gas line was cracking. I change the gas line, the smell went away.
rubber
We can use a pipe from rubber or plastic.
it's a balloon
locate leak , if it is close to a union such as a clamp or going from rubber to metal line, try tightening clamp or cutting a small length off rubber hose and applying a new clamp
cut the gas line at the leak put a piece of rubber gas line over the steel line and clamp it at both end this clear gas line is available at more automotive stores cominly used for gas line on lawn mowers
In the rubber part of what?
somebody may have farted in it haha jk. it could be a loose clamp on your fuel line under the hood or something of that nature
do you have to remover our drop the gas tank to replace the rubber line that connecting to the gas tank on a 1978 corvette
First off where is it? If it is in line then you can cut that section off and replace it with rubber fuel line of equal size.
Yes
Steel tubing as supplied from the factory, but most replacement is reinforced rubber
I just attempted syphoning from my 92 Z-24. There must be water in the gas. I'm thinking of disconnecting the fuel line in the engine compartment and, pumping it out by cranking the engine.. I even went as far to shove a 1/4" hose down to the tank to n avail THEN, got under the car to take the hose clamp off that, holds the rubber pipe to the tank but, they installed the clamp so, you have to drop the tank to get it out.. Pretty frustrating :-0...
If the fuel leaks from the tank only when the tank is full, the filler neck is probably cracked, or if made of rubber, the clamp may be loose and not sealing correctly, also the rubber may be cracked.
AnswerIt has to be proper fuel line hose(printed right on the hose) and double clamp each end with hose clamps....pressure is about 8 lbs............... Depending on the year and make and engine size, some systems have 60 to 66 psi in that fuel line and adding a hose with clamps is not a good idea.
the above was the answer the gas line inside the tank had come off even though the crimping clamp was still on it This was the line from pump discharge to the filter
