Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
Thanks Tiffany,
I have had a gradually worsening smell of fuel for a while now, just no signs of a leak.... so of course I am where you are.... think it is the fuel pump seal that has somehow come unseated.
I just figure if I am under there I might as well look around and such.
I assume with the looks and setup of your rig that you trail or off road alot?

Actually I just did the lift in May, and due to several family and business trips since, and the month long shop visit in August,

Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
Tiffany,
Do you happen to have the info on the repair (part numbers, labor, etc....) for your gas leak?
Turns out it looks like I might have the exact same leak as you did a few months ago
Thanks

Well the fuel line that I thought was going to have to be replaced was discontinued, but the good thing was I didn't need the whole line to begin with. For a $10 fix, my mechanic I believe just cut out a small portion before and after the hole where the leak was, and replaced it with aftermarket fuel line that I think had couplers on either end to connect it to the factory line. I can try looking underneath it when I get home to see if I can spot the repair and take a pic.
I will also send you a PM with the shops contact info so can verify what they actually used.

Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
Tiffany,
If you could shoot me a picture that would be great. This way I can tell what I could do, since I currently have 2 options in my head and a third would be great.
Thanks

OK I'll see what I can do...in the meantime post #4 on this thread is where I listed the part # for the hard fuel line. GM part #15181574. I was told by several different dealers that it had been discontinued. Maybe you can search for it and get lucky. Somebody's bound to have one sitting on a shelf unused.

Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
I just had to replace my fuel pump because of this issue. The pump didn't fail but the lock ring holding the pump in place rusted out completely. It was so bad that on a full tank gas would spew out the top of the gas tank. Had rust and all types of other sediments in the tank. I had to drain all fuel, wipe the tank clean and refill once the new pump was in place. It was nasty!
