Default Gas Smell In 2002 XKR

Hi,

My mother has a 2002 XKR and she is saying that the inside of the car smells like gas fumes. The research I've done suggests that it may be the purge valve. Can someone tell me where it is located and how to test and/or replace it? She can always take it to the dealer, but if it's straightforward I may be able to replace it for her. Thank you.


Rob

There is also a known problem in the vent tube and most dealers have the repair kit.
