What owners wrote

Owner states that his vehicle stalls while driving and that he had a new fuel pump installed but problem came back. Owner further notes that rpms will fall but then go back up while sitting at stop light. Dealers are unable to correct problem.

There is a strong gas smell especially on hot days and there seems to be excessive pressure in the gas tank. I have scoured the vehicle for leaks and can not find any. I have replaced both rubber hoses from the filler neck to the tank and even dropped the tank but didn't find any evidence of a leak. The smell is still occurring. When you first park the vehicle after a drive it is real strong and then goes away.
