Everytime i fill my tank up theres always a very strong smell of petrol untill it gets down to about half a tank, now from full to half the tank it goes very quick but from half to empty its fine. what is causing it to drink my petrol and smell so bad, its that bad im getting high off the fumes

look under the rear seat and carpet, there is an inspection hatch, it has a rubber o-ring on it, sounds like that has perished

how can i tell if it has broster? i have looked there before but wasnt sure what to look for. as for the hole in the top of the tank, a few month ago i filled it up like mega right to the top and it started leaking out at the rear so maybe its that! after that i never filled it right to the top again waste of money
