    When I fill up full tank I can see ( under tank) and smell leaking gas .
    After using same gas ( 50 - 100 km ) the leak is gone.
    Any idea what's wrong ?

    Thanks

    Are you topping off the tank by squeezing the trigger again after the pump
    shuts off the first time? If not perhaps it is with the evaporative
    reduction system? Where is the leak coming from? Is it leaking out of the
    tank itself or is it running down from somewhere else? If you provide your
    model and year others might have better suggestions.

    I would say there is a leak in the tank and it must be located in the upper
    part so when you consumed some gas the level is under the leak.

    Regards,

    Yes, your tank has a leak near the top. Did you really give this any
    thought at all before posting?
