Lately I have been smelling fuel when I drive my GL10 and the other day I noticed my fuel tank was leaking from the top. Is there are seal or something that may have gone bad that I can replace, or am I looking at replacing the whole tank? It's just dripping down the side of the tank.

 

Thanks!!

Does it only leak when the tank is full?  Your sending unit has a gasket that may have gone bad.  I could be very wrong here but fuel tanks very rarely leak from the top because of rust.  Water goes to the bottom and rusts out the bottom.  Now there are experts here who may know more but this is just my thunking.

It does seem like it leaks more when its full. But also when it isnt all the way full, just not as much.

This is most likely your sending unit or lines. 

Salt and mud can wind up on top of the tank and rust it out from the outside.  If you can find the holes, they can be patched with JB Weld.  Fuel fillers can also get rusted out from the outside.
