Hi guys,

Recently I've been noticing the smell of fuel inside the car, and towards the rear end. I've checked all the lines, injectors, the lines and fittings all around the tank (including under the rear seats), the fuel cap and the filler neck and I can't find any leaks.

What else can I do or check? Are there any areas notorious for leaks that I should check again? Car is a '00 dc2r

I had a similar problem in my EG that took me ages to figure out.

Ended up being one of the idiot previous owners drilled through the floor pan to install something (possibly an amp) and left a hole through the tank.
