Hi

Seems a silly item, but it should cure my petrol smell!

where the fuel filler goes in to the tank (on a gsi + probably other models), there in a sort of a small plastic cage thing with a ball in it, which allows fuel in but not out.

I'm after one of those.... Ideally i'd pay with paypal and would want it posted.

Cheers :thumb:

it is usually rolling round in the tank after someone syphoned the fuel out.
I refitted one years back. are you sure the tank & pipes are in good nick?

Yes... Its a race car that I built - its all in good nick but when I fitted the tank I saw it and thought it was simply a anti syphoning device, so chucked it out! :tard:
Its definately the problem, when ever I race it, it leaks fuel out of the fuel cap on left handed bends! :)
