Chili, mostly.
A gas leak
Gas smell after engine is turned off
The EVAP system has a bad gasket.
A gas leak. The gas tank is under the bed in the rear. The gas line goes under the cab to the engine. You should not smell gas at all. I would check the mileage and see if you get close to what is advertised. If you do not and it is really low you might have a leak in the pressurized gas line from the tank to the engine.
This can occur on any vehicle but essentially telling us we have a fault. Fuel system venting? Anti spill valve? Leak? Fuel cap seal failed/split etc an investigation by main dealer is best way to solve but do check out owners club and sites such a petrol heads as they may be a common issue and a resolution offered.
Generally, a gas LEAK!
Start hunting for it. It's not a good thing.
Maybe it's at the engine.
Maybe it's the fuel line.
Maybe it's on the top of the fuel tank where you can't see it.
- Lift kit for 2001 Ford Sport Trac? I know nothing about lift kits but I'm trying to find one for my 2001 Ford Sport Trac. Anyone know where I can get one or what type I should look for?
- I smell antifreeze? Causes? I drive a 1992 ford with 108,000 miles. I recently had everything in the cooling system replaced (radiator, all hoses and lines, thermostat & gasket) I drive about 140 miles a day and my truck is starting to smell like antifreeze coming from the ac, I take perfect care of my truck, engine has been steam cleaned it's spotless, and I do not see an obvious leak? And all the stuff was changed about 3 weeks ago
- Will I cause any damage if I use my manual fuel cutoff/shutdown as a throttle while I investigate why my actual throttle is stuck at full Had my cav rotary injection pump fixed on a diesel Ford tractor. The throttle is not operating correctly (stays at full throttle), is it going to hurt anything to use my manual fuel cutoff as a throttle while I investigate the issue.
- What causes the raw gas smell on the drivers side of a 1994 Ford explorer xlt 4x4? Raw gas smell coming out from drivers side near gas tank, saw a rusted spot on the top gas line at rear near tank. Also off topic but the gas gauge says empty when according to specs it still has 4 to 6 gallons left.
