Gas smell
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 19-Aug-00 AT 04:15 AM (EST)[/font][p][font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 19-Aug-00 AT 04:15 AM (EST)[/font]
When I cut off my engine after parking my 94 Explorer XLT, an odd odor appears. It smells a little like gas, but it is not quite as strong in aroma. I cannot locate the source of the smell but it seems like it is coming from the front rather than from the rear of the car. It is more apparent after I have travelled 20+ miles and only appears after driving. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gas smell
I had a problem w/ my 96 E150, kept smeeling gas after stopping the vehicle, never could find a drip anywhere. Dealer had it 3 times, replaced the filler hose, no joy. I kept insisting to check the fuel pump gasket(top of tank), they said it was fine. Finally, filling fuel one day, I heard the sound of "rain" looked under the van and gas was pouring from the top of the tank. I drove it (next door) and they replaced the gasket under the fuel pump. Just an idea......
