Hi All,
I have a 98 Disco 3.9ltr v8i with a 1st generation gas system.
The first brass filler I had on the car was faulty so I got a new one and changed it, its been fine up until recently after filling up with gas the attachment from the gas station gets stuck onto my filler and it takes some getting off, even though I have turned the attachment all the way back.
So last night I was filling up with gas and it got stuck so I turned the attachment all the way back and I could feel it coming off my filler so I turned it a bit harder and as the attachment came off my filler gas started to leak out of my filler.
I thaught I had damaged my filler but after I got home the leak had stopped.
I checked this morning (when it was daylight) and the copper pipe and connection to the filler is ok with no leaks and I could not smell any gas leaking.
Now thinking about it today I thaught maybe I over filled with gas and what was coming out of my filler was just excess gas that didnt go in the tank???
Am I barking up the wrong tee, has this happened to anyone else.
Thanks very much
John
