Subject:      Van won't start with strong gas smell...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

List population,

Van has been sitting for a few weeks while we sell of our beloved '98 Audi A4 Avant Quattro wagon. We have three cars now and only need two, the third car is a new addition from my business and I don't want to sell the Syncro Westy so unfortunately the Audi has to go.

Went out to take it and the family to get our Christmas tree and it wouldn't start. Seemed like it wasn't getting any fuel. Noticed a strong gasoline smell and some gasoline leaking onto the driveway. Could this be the fuel lines? Maybe sitting for an extended period and the cooler weather created this problem. No matter, I am looking to the list once again to steer me in the right direction before I dive in and fix the problem.

Thanks,

Jim 1991 Syncro Westy
