Default RE: car smells like gas

Did you over fill your tank??? Is your gas cap on??? Did you look at your fuel line and injectors to see if it is leaking there in the engine bay??? Was there an old hoopty driving in front of you when you smelled gas??? Do you smell it all the time or just on idle/acceleration???


Give us more to work with!

Check for a leak in the EVAP system.
