gas expansion/ leak
Went out for a drive yesterday and filled up on the way home about a mile from the house.
Parked the car. Came out this morning to strong gas smell in the garage and found a small puddle under the right rear tire. Can find no obvious evidence of a leak point.
When I filled up yesterday it got a little fuller than normal. Almost to the top of the filler neck. Got up to about 80 degrees yesterday. Maybe a little warmer in the closed garage. I would assume the gas was quite a bit cooler in the in ground storage tank.
Does it seem reasonable the gas just expanded and came out?
Anyone had this happen?
Would it likely have come out the fuel vent hose?
Other than wiping up any residue I found would anyone recommend any other corrective actions?
Thanks
