    4WD help?

    Recently had a U-joint that was popping on my front driver's side. Replaced the U-joint and popping stopped, but when I make a hard right turn it hops, and in 4wd any right makes it hop.

    Problems staying running

    If the seal is bad, it would probably cause a drop in fuel pressure. I def need to check it out.

    Has anyone had issues with a strong gas odor after filling the tank? sometimes it looks as if fuel has ran down the side of the tank but not much.
