Hi
Need some advice please. My 3200 fuel vapour smell has returned inside the car. The story goes that when I bought it I noticed it and the Ferrari Centre in Maidstone fixed it. Well not exactly it turrns out. It returned again some months later so I took advice on SM and was guided to the boot to check clips on the fuel hoses. I did this and even replaced one of Maserati's traditional clips with a better jubilee clip on what I thought was the suspect hose. I then took her to Le Mans this year and did 1000 miles without a whiff of fuel in the cabin so problem solved. Now its back and I wanted to ask if I should be pulling the back seat out and checking on that side of the tank ? Or is the problem still in the boot area ? On visual inspection there are no obvious weaping hoses so I am blind as to which is the culprit. Please advise as I want to have a go at this tomorrow if in my realms of DIY. If not she'll have to go to Maser hospital. I want to smell leather not petrol !!
Regards
Paul
