Re: [DML] Need guidance regarding gasoline leak

[Warren Wallingford <warren@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Check the large hose clamp that holds the pump, boot, and cover to the 
tank itself.  Most likely it has slipped off the lip and floats up when 
the level rises as you fill it.  The excess fuel runs out from under the 
boot onto the ground.  Go to the pump through the spare tire well and 
re-position the pump.
If you need a replacement kit, follow the link.
