Ski, I see according to a recent reply post in your Cab Mount Access Interiors forum thread that it seems you found the probable source of your fuel odor in the cab to be from a deteriorated main fill hose. Glad you found the source.

You also mentioned that in wrestling out the fuel tank that you had a minor oops that knocked off the "fuel line fitting". Question on that subject - is the tank by chance a "Spectra" replacement and is it less than 3 years since purchase??? It may be that the tank could still be under warranty if that's the case.

See this related "Fuel Tank Outlet Repair" thread as it may relate to your tank issue too.
