Gas/Fuel Tank Leak
#11

Update -
It looks like I am on my own with my Disco - I just got off the phone with a not so local dealer - couldn't get the closest one on the phone - In any case, he checked my VIN and the gas tank recall work was completed on my baby in 2006 - They offered a diagnostic for the small price of 140.00 - That's just the diagnostic - anyways, being newly laid off (unemployed) from work, that kind of money is just NOT SMALL.
Question -
Would they have put in a faulty gas tank in to her when they did the work?
I assume that the tank recall - was related to the tank and not the breather/vent hose - As such I am back to one of the original suggestions which is the fault is with the hose.
Either today or tomorrow, I will be emptying her of fuel, and dropping the gas tank to take a good look look at the problem.
Since this is primarily my daughters baby, she's going to be assisting, and part of her responsibilities are going to be pictoral documentation. I will post the pics and steps I take for resolution of this issue. Just in case someone else needs to do the work.
Thanks again, for all the input and suggestions,
In Peace and Agape,

Hey Hey Guys - I got the tank off my rig and here is a pic of the problem - as a few have speculated - the Vent/Breather hose has failed (epically)...
I intend to post a different thread to help others do this job- I just wanted to make sure that this thread had some form of final word on the problem...
