The gas is pouring on the ground, gas tank is fine. Help
It's coming out of the small black box connected to the gas lines, replaced it but theres another black box. Charcoal box? Replaced it with a junk yard part. Now gas only leaks when truck is running, it was even when off? We are running out of ideas Could it still be the purge cannister thingee?

Hi there,

You will have to check for a cracked pipe, this should not be a problem to find, and if fuel pipe (supply or return) is damaged you should replace the pipe and not attempt to repair it.
