2004 XC70 Evaporation Canister J Hose Replace Location V70-XC70

Klaus,

Yes the codes were for an emission problem. The three different shops' computers all came up with the solution as the gas cap. I checked and cleaned the o ring, and the check engine light went off.

The problem remains though. A very strong gas smell which I can not find any leak. I'm wondering if it's intermittent and hidden away somewhere. I backed the car into the yard the other day, then pulled forward, within 15 minutes there was a 2 inch wide path of dead grass three feet long directly where the car had been. It must have been a pin hole spray of gas onto the ground there. I find no evidence of a leak in any line or connector. This wasn't a drip, it was an exact concise path.

Any ideas where to go with this? Thanks so much.
