Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I recently purchased the vehicle and when examining the underside of the vehicle i noticed stains on fuel lines and fuel tank from leakage. 1.the fuel return hose is badly cracked near the fuel tank and has been leaking. 2. the floor of the vehicle directly above the fuel return line is stained from fuel which appears to have been sprayed upward from the fuel line. 3. there appears to have been leakage onto the top of the fuel tank which has flowed down the side of the tank, possibly from the spray from the fuel return line or bad gaskets on the top of the fuel tank . 4. there are 2 deep cracks in the rubber hose which runs from the fuel filler to the tank, there is no sign of leakage from these cracks. i felt that these problems should not be appearing on a 1993 vehicle and that i should notify nhtsa of these problems. thank you, doug nelson |
