I thought that the filler neck was leaking a little fuel from the rubber hose, But as I took the rear panels out the filler neck is dry and not leaking. What I found was the banjo bolt on the vent pipe was loose. O.K. tighten it up. Well it won't titen up, pulled out the bolt and the threads were worn out or kinda stripped. I know that the banjo bolt is hard to get. Does any body have the thread size? and I will drill my own vent holes in the bolt.
 
I don't remember what size it was when I removed the vent line and block the vent off. I got tired of all the fuel coming out the vent line in turns. My fuel cap has a small vent hole and have not had any problems since I toke off the vent line.
