    Hi All, I have a 1995 310 Express. The previous owner replaced a leaking fuel tank and we are dealing with gas smells on occasion. Tank is tight, all piping is good, absolutely no leaking. The old tank did leak though and I am thinking the fiberglass has absorbed some gas and is off-gassing into the cabin during certain conditions. I know Silverton tanks are prone to this issue so someone out there must have dealt with the same problem. How do I rid the smell from fiberglass? All suggestions are welcome!!!
