    exactly! and doubly especially so if theres a gas fired water heater in
    the garage the van is in.

    i fried the engine bay of an 81 mazda 626 many years ago because it had
    a carb leak and i pushed it into the garage to work on it. once the
    water heater 15 feet away kicked in, the fumes from the small puddle on
    the ground instantanously combusted.

    Can you tell me more specifically where this access panel to the fuel pump
    is? Under the driver-side 2nd row seat? Does the carpeting have to be cut
    to get at it (or does it pill away). Thanks

    The second row seats have to be removed and the carpet removed. This doesn't
    give access to all pipes going in the tank as there are several. Your best
    option is to take it back to whoever replaced the tank and have them fix it.
    It could also be a crack in the plastic tank.
