Car smells of gasoline...
Car smells of gasoline...
ok, finished my ej20t conversion a couple of months ago... there was a gasoline smell inside the car after I've had in the shop for a couple of months and I thought it would clear out when I would start using the car... but the smell is not giong away! what can be causing this? I'm running a rubber fuel return line through the inside of the car - can that be the cause of it? or is this the charcoal canister bugging me?
hehe... what's wrong with you people?! the fuel lines run inside the car from the factory anyways - metal or rubber - what's the difference?! :P
I found the cause of the smell... my surge tank has a small leak and it's located near the heater duct openings and so the smell got inside the car through ari ducts...

My mate runs rubber 1/2" lines in his smallblock HJ, and has done for the past couple of years.
Personally I'd run steel lines, but definitely in the cabin. Any wire or pipe that runs from the front of the car to the back should be in the cabin IMHO.
