Re: Gas Leak

I'd say get a new gas cap, too. Checking the fuel filter isn't a bad idea either.

Hey antiburn...where'd you get the Z31 model? That's bad ass.

Re: Gas Leak

if the z31 gas cap is like the z32 gas cap, then it is pressurized. so like llz and antiburn said, i would try a new gas cap. and also i would replace the fuel filter, it is just a $10 replacement.
