I overfilled my gas tank and it leaked gas out! It dribbled out the botom
I think it got filled all the way up to the hose. So its leaking. And now I think it stopped. The garage is full of gas smell so I parked it out in the street. Gas is scary!

I drove it around a bit to see if that helped, and now its not dripping. I'm sorry for dumping. my little stupid problems


F**K . I have a Jeep Cherokee. Has this happen to anyone?

2. Yes, I had a 1989 Cherokee and the tank must have rusted
through or something. I had to have the tank replaced. I have never had this problem with any other car. There were other weird things that this Jeep would do. I finally got ride of it. It was a piece of junk. I'll never buy another Jeep.
