Every summer I get a horrible gas smell that sometime permeates throughout the cabin of my 1993 240. I have noticed that after driving the vehicle and parking that there is hissing coming from the gas cap which is relieved when I take it off. No visible leaks detected. Gas cap has already been replaced

Any help would be appreciated.

Keep your tank filled up...gasoline is recirculated, and obtains heat from engine compartment.

Might check: Roll-over valve. Stock Code 1255422 See Photo also.
