hello fellower xj owners! i got a 2001 xj and the other day i fired it up and smelled a strong gas smell coming from the filler neck /cap area along with a lil hissing, iwas wondering if any of you guys expeirenced this? im pretty sure its a faulty gas cap . its a locking gas cap is it supposed to do that or release pressure or sumthing? any advice would be great!

 

I would just go buy a new cap. Theyre cheap so at least u get the locking one off. If u want you can put the locking one on a buddy's car so the next time he needs to get gas he can't ...haha

 

these things happen when you fart in the cab

roll down the windows

 

lol, sounds good ill try getting a new cap, and less farting

 

let us know how it turns out
