I don't get any hint of gas smell in My 52..
As far as relocating the tank, it would be My opinion that the source of the oder could be fixed
alot cheaper than a new tank between the frame rails...In the Army when You drove a jeep You were
practically sitting on the tank...It was under the
seat...Bill B
