Just purchased a 2002 Safari Lt AWD.... finding out some issues.. today, I filled the tank and when I got home, parked in the slightly downhill driveway. Noticed it was steady dripping gas! So I pulled it up to the top where it is level.. on the way up it was pouring gas on the steep part of the driveway. Its on level ground and not dripping. What could possibly be going on?
Another issue is the ABS and brake light are coming on intermittently. I am taking kids out to farms starting next monday and do not want to be driving a potentially dangerous car! Any ideas out there?
both my vans have had leaks from the top of the gas tank where the plastic gas line meets the metal line , i fixed it by using a small pipe cutter and pushing a gas rubber hose over the plastic part with collars to wherever the metal line was still good , i know there is a companie that makes an oem like replacement buts its bout 100 $ , the way i did it is much cheaper .
Assuming the brakes feel normal and the reservoir is full you may have the loose relay (broken solder) problem in the ABS control box.
The fuel could be leaking from the top of the tank if the fuel pump was installed incorrectly and the snap ring or retainer ring has come off. This happened to my neighbor a week after replacing his fuel pump in a Blazer.
I would definitely not drive anyone around until the source of the fuel problem is fixed.
