Default Gas Smell

Have a Backdraft Cobra. When ever I filled the tank almost to the top, the car generated a strong smell of gas. Gas smell was coming from the flip open gas cap. Adjusted the bolt on the inside of the flip cap so it would seat better. There is also a rubber O ring that may need to be replaced. Note: Some air still needs to move in & out for proper venting. Gas smell is more or less gone.
