Bad /good news

[steplift20]

I filled my boat up with gas for winter. And gas started spilling out of my hull drain plug area , not good but it stopped after about a gallon came out. The good news is I found out there was a problem on land and not in the water. God forbid there was a spark. ***128293;. So what I’m thinking is it’s leaking somewhere from the top,possibly the hose fill where it attaches to the tank. I hope it’s not the tank,it’s a plastic tank.
Any suggestions?

I feel for you step, check the the hoses as you mentioned and also the fuel sending unit. There is a seal there where I have had trouble in the past. Hope it isn't the tank. Keep us posted on what your find.

Check your vent line too. Hope you find the leak.

I’m not going to do nothing now ( it’s winter in nj now ,almost winter )but before I put the battery’s in I will check all. The fittings. Inopeitsnot going to be bad. .

You know blue runner ,I can check the sending unit without taking the panel off there is an access panel right over the sending unit
I didn’t think of that. Thanks.

sending unit seal is a pretty common problem, easily fixed. It normally shows up if you fill your tank full or over full. Same for the fill hose. Good luck.
