Description of the problem | When filling my gas tank a week ago, i noticed a strong fuel smell. I looked under my truck and saw fuel dripping from the seem of the gas tank. Now that i've lost half the fuel it no longer smells or leaks. Im certain this was a direct cause of salt chemicals used in ice removal, here in northern mn. The straps and frame cross member bars holding the cargo bed in place have also disappeared from rust corrosion. |
