Hello Volks,

My '85 Westy has a strong gas odor outside the van after I fill-up. It's mostly on the passenger side and goes away after a few days.

No, don't see anything dripping from below but I suspect something is wrong. Has anyone else had and solved this problem before? TIA.

Roy Mellor Little Rock, AR '85 GL Westy "Humbert"

I had the same problem with a 1985 Westy and it was a separation around the gas filling pipe. I had it repaired and it was okay after that. hOpe this helps Brucen@bellsouth.net -- A person who can smile when things go wrong has found someone to blame it on. .
