[s-cars] UrS fuel smell around tank

[Mark Pollan]

Any way to pressurize the tank a la pressure testing the cooling system or
intake tract or...

As far as the flange seal is concerned that is the very first repair I did
on my urS6.  Took a couple of hours in the garage with no special tools.  I
can't imagine shop time would exceed dos horas.

That's all I got.

Mark

Q here for a friend thar.  

'95.5 sedan mit 150k reeks of gas inside car and outside, mostly after
fill up then dissipates mostly.  It's *definitely neither*underhood nor
not the lines down the pass side sill.  Definitely not those.  It's not
(seemingly) on top of the fuel pump basket.  

But the tank is wet coming down from the top, over the tank seam, and
down the bottom.  First glance to me thought tank seam but it at least
appears to be coming from above there.  

Any BTDT's on this?  It's hard to tell cause everything right there is
wet due to...

Unrelated:

Rear diff pass flange spew out.  What's the typical $$$ for a shopjob on
addressing pass seal R&R?  Guesstimate would be cool.  

Well least he's got new RS4 rep 18's en route, leaks be damned?  I told
him to change his name to "Halstedo" - bwd'oh.  But he does need to
address the asphyxiator that now ferries his 3 week old girly...

Danka gents.
