Does this mean that, if I have no petrol smell from my car, the petrol tank overflow must be blocked? It is possible that it is blocked, as I have never checked, but I am not about to go poking anything up to find out.
As the temperature in the garage varies, the tank will 'breathe' a little, and some of the fume-laden air above the petrol will end up in the garage to be dispersed by natural ventilation - but I cannot see it adding up to much of a volume.
Is there generally a petrol smell close to the unsealed petrol cap - another potential route for escape? Haven't noticed this, but again, haven't checked.
