    Welcome to the H.A.M.B. Sounds like your filler neck to the gas tank has separated or has a hole in it. The original tank was at the rear, under the trunk. The filler cap was in the center of the rear and the fuel went through the filler tube to the tank below. Good luck !

    Welcome from Oregon. It's not clear to me what's going on. Is any gas getting into the tank? Could there be a blockage in the filler neck. Maybe the rubber filler neck joint is rotten or loose.
