I love the smell of petrol in the morning...

...well i dont really but wondering how normal it is to be able to smell petrol in a 964 which has no physical signs of any fuel leak. the problem is more pronounced in the boot but having taken out the lining, i still cant detect any leakage

It is the filler tube to petrol tank usually.

I believe they modified the part some years ago. Not expensive and fairly easy to fit IIRC.

lovely chaps thanks. what specfically is this part? is it the neck which you put the fuel pump into?

There is procedure explained on John Miles 964 site, porche964.co.uk. Look in the Engine and Tranmission Section - under fuel odour.

I had a similar problem caused by the fuel inlet pipe being incorrectly fitted, but its all there with pictures.
