Gas smell...no indicators
 

Hey everyone. I just got my car back last week from having a 2nd engine replacement. On my way home today I started smelling unburnt fuel.

No indicator lights turned on and all gauges were normal. Any ideas? I'm going to take it to the dealer tomorrow. Is it safe to drive in or should I tow it?

There have been a couple of leaking fuel line connectors...and a couple of fires.....

I would tow it unless you can correct the leak....make the dealer pay for it :)

+1^ i still remember rotary rasp's pictures

Get it towed to the dealer before it catches fire

This has happened more than once!!!!!!!!!!



Look at the following thread and down in there will be pictures of the actual fuel line we are talking about.

WOW. Shit that. That bitch is getting towed. Thanks for the heads up.

Might not be it, but be very, very careful!
Best to tow it in, but you can look under the hood and see if it's pooling gas anywhere near that hose/connector.
When you take it in, inform them to look at them that they should have replaced that line with the engine replacement. They are NOT supposed to re-use it as far as I know.
