Occasionally when I am driving with the hood down I get a smell of petrol, yesterday while getting petrol I noticed the large rubber grommet under the filler cap was perished and had a small split in it.

 

I wondered if this could be a contributory factor to the smell my question is can you buy a new rubber and how do you remove the old one I had a fiddle with it and it seemed pretty hard to remove.

 

Thanks and regards John Harvey.

John,

I would replace it, since it has had its best days, but it may or may not cure your problem.

Also look at the other rubbers and fuel hoses, also the one on the tank filler neck.

You can but new rubbers from Moss, BP North West or any other US supplier.
