@speranza.aioe.org:

Any idea why it only leaks when the engine is running?

Sure. The system slightly pressurizes the tank so that tank vapors are
passed back into the intake system.

Shouldn't BE any leaks; the system is designed to be airtight. If so,
it's
probably a sensor/fuel-pickup gasket problem... but it could be a bad
seam.
That's something that needs attention NOW!

In the meanwhile, run your tank no more than 1/2 full to prevent the leak.

Just went out and removed the gas cap so there is no pressure in the tank
still leaks when engine is running.Unlikley to be a bad seam, this car is in
las vegas and does not have any corrosion issues. Tank looks like factory
new. Only has a 1/4 tank of gas.

Best Regards
Tom.


You have a fuel injector line or attachment that is leaking at one of
the cylinders
