THIS IS FUEL COMING OUT?
I COULD NOT FIND A PIC OF YOUR FUEL FILLER
I WILL IMPROVISE
NOTICE THE FUEL TANK IN THIS LINK......IT IS FOR A JEEP CJ (THE BEST VEHICLE IN THE WORLD)
http://www.jeep4x4center.com/jeep-fuel-system-parts/cj5-cj7-cj8-scrambler.htm#12
"10"....."11" ...."12" (OVER ON THE RIGHT) IN THE "PIC/ DIAGRAM" IS WHAT I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT
"10" IS THE VENT HOSE IN THIS PIC.......IT COMES FROM THE TANK AND ENDS UP ON THIS "PARTICULAR FILLER NECK"................"11" IS THE FILL HOSE
THIS ALLOWS FUEL TO FLOW INTO THE TANK......AND THE AIR TO BE EXPELLED SO IT DON'T "BURP" OR SHUT OFF THE PUMP, DURING FUELING
THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT WAYS THIS IS DONE ON OTHER VEHICLES.......SOMETIMES THE HOSE GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE NECK........SOMETIMES IT JUST "TEEs INTO" THE BIGGER HOSE PRIOR TO GETTING ALL THE WAY TO THE NECK (IN THIS CASE, THE NECK WOULD ONLY HAVE ONE HOSE FITTING)
NOT KNOWING HOW YOURS IS SET UP...........AND YOU DID NOT SUPPLY A GOOD PIC OF WHERE THE PROBLEM IS EXACTLY.......I WILL ATTEMPT TO WING IT!
IS THE SMALLER HOSE SIMILAR TO WHAT I HAVE SHOWN YOU?
EXACTLY WHERE IS IT COMPROMISED.....AT A FITTING..... OR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOSE?
CAN YOU GET TO IT WELL?
A BIG OLE HAND MIRROR (EVEN YOUR VANITY MIRROR OR THE REAR-VIEW), AND A GOOD FLASHLIGHT MIGHT LET YOU SEE IT/ TAKE A PIC WITHOUT BEING A CONTORTIONIST!
LET'S ...........NOT...........USE A CIGARETTE LIGHTER TO LOOK!
GIMME MORE ON THE SITUATION---I WILL THEN ATTEMPT SOME SORTA "McGYVER MANEUVER" TO AID YOU!
YOUR TURN
THE MEDIC
