Gas tank leakage from the very upper top of tank PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! 700

posted by  someone claiming to be 777 on  Fri Jun 10 10:52 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Hello guys!

Problem! I have a gas tank leak (moderate stream/drip) coming from the upper left hand side of my tank. Are there any rubber hose and or steel lines that feed into the top of the tank that I should be aware of? The stream seems as though it is coming from the left side (top) and basically running down by the left side tank strap and dripping oof of the floor board (STINKS)! I have not have the chance to view the exact area, I am just hopeful that maybe a rubber line and or the connection at the top of the tank is just loose and or is need of a gasket and or new lines? How common are these type of leaks with volvos? If it is the top of the tank small hole)could I simply patch it up with some gas proof epoxy? Please all of your help and or suggestions/experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Best Regards!
