Anyone Elses Civic Leak Gas??????
ok
just bought my first Civic last night its a 91 3 Door Hatchback DX i filled it with gas before i brought it home (totally full) and then i parked it in my driveway my driveway slants and the back of the car was towards the bottom of the hill i noticed when i came outside there was a decent amount of fuel on the ground i am thinking (hoping) this was because it was on a slant and because it was so full that it leaked out anyone ever hear of this?? any ideas? thanks |

I'm pretty sure that the gas shouldn't leak out at all. You'll want to check that out and look for a crack.

Even with a full tank it shouldn't leak. That's not right??

My friends leaked only with a full tank, because the hole was up higher.. he just couldnt fill it up past the whole..

I think he pulled the gas tank out and used some JBweld and a peice of hard plastic or aluminum or something and patched the whole.. Like I said.. I ask him exactly what he used.
