Hey guys i've had this problem since i bought the car and i've only just located it now because it only does it on a rare occasion fuel will leak out of the red circled tube unsure to what this is or what would be causing fuel to come out of it any help would be great...

theyre breather hoses for the fuel tank, well - thats where they should be atleats. chuck a search theres a thread with a digram on replacing the hoses around somewhere.

Mine where the same, looks like this now.



Theres a diagram around here somewhere with the locations of each of the hoses, i got it on my other computer so if by the time im back on there and no ones posted it will.

I had the exact same problem in a VN wagon. Easy fix was to put the engine in my Hilux and run it on straight LPG and be able to say "F*** You Petrol"!

The fuel was pissing out of the bottom of the Pollution Control Carbon canister for some reason when flogging the car in city traffic and also parked nose down. I ended up blocking the breathers off under the canister to drive it for a few weeks until the engine came out.

Another suggestion is to install LPG so you can say "F*** You petrol" too!

I have the same problem, Hop out of the car and can smell the fuel.
My car tends to drink alot of petrol around town and I wonder how much this contributes to it.

Cheers Guys, i was wondering how much fuel its been dumping when i was driving around today but doesnt seem to be to bad but i would prefer fuel not to be leaking out down the side of my car so probably look into fixing it sometime soon
