I've got a problem I've never seen before.

Got a 94 accord lx that had a leak in the gas tank.
Changed the tank, fuel pump, and filter.
Everything seemed fine, starts right up, drives good.

Shortly after driving. The car starts leaking or gushing gas from the passenger side, from the area where the ac condensation drips.

I found that it looks to be coming from the fuel evaporator cannister, but I have no clue why.

Any ideas or help is appreciated.

Could be your fuel filter. Maybe didnt tighten up that bottom bolt id check that out first.

 

yeah, that's the first place I checked.

The fuel is coming out a drain tube from the bottom of the cannister.

check the hoses by the fuel tank,you may have put a few in the wrong places

 

he said it's dripping from the passenger side, aint the fuel filter on the driver side, around the master cyilinder area?

 

No it fuel filter is on passenger side firewall area. Id recheck your hoses but if its coming out of the canister there might be too much gas?? EVAP is supposed to catch gas fumes and returns to tank with intake vaccuum.

naik 90-93 have the fuel filter on passenger side .94-97 have the filter below brake master cylinder

 

remove the hose from the charcoal canister, run car and see if fuel is going into canister when car is running ..also chk for injector leak that might drip down the chassis and make it come out from that area

 

Sorry about the late reply. Storm knocked out my modem.

The gas is definitely coming out the drain hose from the bottom of the cannister.
I can stop it when I put my finger in the end.

I would hate to have to take this in the dealer.
