I have a 1989 Dodge Ramcharger 4wd 5.9L . . . near the rear of the
vehicle I often detect a faint odor of fuel, but no matter how hard I look
I'll be damned if I can find a leak! Has anyone on the list had a similar
problem? Found a cure??

L8r,

JDR

Check the vent lines at the top of the tank.

If at first you don't succeed, you're not cut out for skydiving

Look @ the fuel return line hose entering the tank,,,.also check the fuel
filler gasket into the tank (long shot).

My '85 4 door duelly started leaking @ the return line a few months ago,,but
it should,,it's got 566K miles and lives in Texas.
