gas leak?
I have a 1990 accord, manual 5 speed. Whenever I fill the tank with
gas, it leaks somewhere until it gets close to 1/2 empty. My question is, what is the best way to fix the leak? Thanks |

Agreed, that's most likely... and if that is the case, it's probably a factory recall item, and your local dealer should fix it for free. Actually, I can't find that one listed as a recall for the '90 Accord, but it is a recall item on the 3rd-gen ('86-'89) Accords - see he http://www.autorecalls.us/aut-04/rec...ord/49845.html You can always call the dealer or stop by, and have them run the VIN number, and they'll tell you what recalls, if any, apply to your car. |
