    im not 100% sure but i think the jap spec 300s have a different size petrol filler cap, mines a jap model and the same thing happens. :rant:

     

    also with regards to the petrol smells this is a common fault. check all your petrol pipes in the engine bay, chances are that alot of the jubilee clips will be loose.

     

    hope that helps, gaz.

    the petrol filling neck sometimes rots from the accumulation of mud - mainly on UK cars. Get underneath and clean it all up and have a look see...

     

    Good luck

     

    ...hows Middlesbrough these days - I used to work there years ago...
