Ok first of all i feel like an idiot, was at the gas station drove away and heard a loud CLUNK. turns out i drove away with the hose in my tank still... ripped it right off..

anyway after that while driving at low speeds only, i hear this small clunk coming from the rear its intensity gets lower and speed of accurance gets slower equally making me believe its something floating around in liquid or something hanging from another object.

the strange thing is.. it only happens when my car is turned on, and when it is jerked in a front to back motion. no sounds come from side to side motions..
to check it id tap on the brakes, and there it is clunk...clunk............clunk
only when car is all the way on

what the hell is going on?!

Wow, that sucks man. I never heard of anything like that before. I guess a small piece of the hose could have fell into your tank. You might want to find out how to remove all your gas and the tank. I never did anything like that before, but I don't see what else you can do.

it is probally something from the pump in your tank. And anyways how do you drive off with the handle still in there? i mean come on if you had a quick release and your steering wheel was not on you wouldnt try to drive with out it. i just dont understand how people can be this stupid. they should have impunded your car for fucking their pump up. my 2 cents
