- Condition: New
A fuel smell, drips or stains where the car sits, or rust and pinholes in the tank can mean it is leaking. With the engine off and cool, start by looking over the lines and fittings you can see, since a leaking fitting can look much like a leaking tank, and let a shop trace any leak before the tank is replaced. Fuel leaks need attention promptly.
