Why does the car smell strongly of gasoline after refueling?
1 Answers
When the fuel tank is overfilled, gasoline may flow into the carbon canister through the fuel line. The carbon canister is designed to absorb gasoline vapors. If it becomes saturated with gasoline, excessive gasoline vapors may escape through the vent holes, especially when the air conditioning is in external circulation mode, making the gasoline smell particularly strong.
