I get a gas smell in my 82 rabbit pickup whenever I open a window. I get it from the wing windows and the back sliding window as well. I dont get it from the vents. I removed the headliner a long time ago, so air can come in through there. I patched three leaks on the gas tank and see no more signs of leaks on the tank from the bottom. Ive never noticed the smell when looking under the hood. It also doesnt seem to matter if the tank is full or near empty. It started when I changed the sending unit in the tank. The leaks started when I removed the rusty tank straps, but those OK now. The sending unit doesnt have the evaporative emmisions beathing tube, so I disconnected and plugged that on the motor and leave the tank cap slightly open so the tank doesnt pressure up. Should I just leave the tank sealed and let it pressure up? Thanks.
BTW, I got my brakes all fixed up and am going to get new tires soon for the shaking.
