Diesel pouring out of filler tube when cap removed...
Over 2 months ago, I installed a 40 gallon auxiliary diesel tank in my Ford F250. Yesterday, I noticed diesel was leaking out under my truck. I checked all connections and none of them were leaking. I remove the cap from the filler tube and Diesel started pouring out.
The original tank is 2/3 full and the auxiliary tank is full. I have taken several trips with no problem.
The ambient temperature is averaging 95 degrees. I have no idea if this could contribute to the problem.
I took the filler cap off the auxiliary tank to see if it had built up pressure. But, it did no good. When I opened the filler tube cap, diesel continued to poor out.... In fact I would say it was gushing out.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? And if so, how did you solve it? Thanks, Karl Davidson
