Subject:      Gas overflow
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


I'm getting gas coming out somewhere when I make a left turn. Its appearing on the outside of the van from the gas cap area and downward.   It has been too cold to do any work this spring so I have not taken a look at it deeply yet.  I have an '83.5 but I have the later model "floaty ball" filler tube that I thought was supposed to stop this.  Anyway, before I go taking out the filler tube, etc. what should I look for and are there any particur parts, gaskets, etc. I should replace just because I'm there?
I've tried multiple gas caps, its' not that.


Thanks,Bryan
