I have an 87 westy with 130k. After simply starting the van and moving it a few feet then shutting it down, the smell of gas lingered very badly from the rear passenger tire area. I have cleaned the lines from the charcoal canister, looked inside the canister and blown thru it. It seemed to pass air fine. I am stumped as to where this could be coming from. If I drive the van for a bit it never smells of gas. Any ideas? Thank you, Corey Hoffman 87 westy 93 euro
