Yeah well when them EECS lines perish, when u fill ur tank up it ends up leaking fuel outta the top of the tank onto the ground.

Actually I still get a fuel smell every now and then after filling so I'll check those EECS lines. Thanks.:thumbsup:

I had a simillar problem with my VN after driving my car i stopped then notice drops comming from the right rear side of my car hoping that it was water ... but it was fuel .. found out it was a breather hose or something. cause when i put my hand up underneath my car a small crappy hose fell down but i was too lazy to do it myself and got my mechanic to do the job for me :p
