gas leak? 850

There is a dealer recall on this. Check with your dealer...still think they replace the gas tank free of charge. There is a hose that has a metal clamp or something that rubs on the PVC material tank, rubbing a small hole in it, up close to the top of the tank near the filler mouth. It's a common problem, causing vacumm issues too and setting lights besides the smell. Good luck and please post back as to how the dealer handled this.
