Hi folks:

I think I already know the answer to this, but here goes anyway. I had some stainless steel coolant pipes installed about a month ago, and the shop dropped the fuel tank a little bit as instructed by Van Cafe' to allow better access for the pipes. Ever since the stainless steel coolant pipe install, I've been smelling gas. I figure that the seals were probably disturbed from the vapor recovery system. The mechanics mentioned he saw some rotted ends on the fuel lines and trim them and reattached. I don't know if there's hose barbs or what as I've never seen one close up.

After filling up tonight, I most certain have a leak. I think I got a good quart of fuel that overflowed on the ground, and dripping off the gas tank. I wasn't sure if I should even drive the thing at that point, but what to do. Had a full load of groceries, and needed to get home.

Is there a danger of this catching on fire or am I safe to drive it to the shop tomorrow? I am kind of inclined to have a tow truck pick it up. Bad news is there's a full tank of gas there, minus the quart that went on the ground--talk about gas fumes, whew!
