Subject:Syncro: leaky gas tank
From:Matthew Pollard
Date:Fri, 1 Feb 2002 22:49:33 -0800

So i put the first full tank of gas into my tiico... I stop in the Moscow
Food Co-Op Parking lot to grab some vegetarian meat (tofu, baby!) and come
out to some smelly hippies (complet with dreds and crap in their hair)
looking under my syncro. "cool, someone is noticing my bus. Sweet"  is
what i though. But no, i was dripping gas from the top passanger side of
the tank. Now save me from walking all the way to garage to get the
Bentley and tell me what leaks up there? Vents, o-rings, filler-tube? Or
is is a, gasp, a fresh hole from teh tiico conversion. As a note, it was
below 20 in town for the past few weeks....

thank
