Hey, I'm new to the forum and have a few questions about the fuel filler hose on my 95 Ranger. Whenever I fill up my tank past 3/4 full it leaks gas out from the top of the tank, and I can smell gas until the tank is less than 3/4 full. From reading around this and other forums, I've gathered that it's probably the fuel filler hose. I live pay check to pay check, and really can't afford to get it fixed at this time.
My question is how long do you think I can get by without fixing it? If I don't fill up past 3/4 full is it going to be a safety hazard to me? How bad will it effect my gas mileage? Also, if I have some spare cash, and opt for the $90 ones they sell on the internet, does it work as well as the original?
Thanks for the help.
