Hazard

The fuel evaporative emission control device assembled on the fuel tank may develop micro-cracks in the resin case top surface due to improper shape design. Continued use over an extended period can cause these cracks to propagate through the case wall, resulting in fuel leakage when the tank is full and potential fuel odor.
