Gasoline Smell

I have had my 96 LT1 Vette for about 3 months. I recently began to smell gas in the passenger area a few days ago. I smell it when idling and with the A/C on. I am bringing it to the shop tomorrow, but was just curious if anyone else had experienced this, or has ideas of what it may be?

Thanks :confused: :seeya

Dry gaskets/seals or corroded fuel tank. Unless there's a leak somewhere. Just a guess since I haven't had the problem. Good luck, hopefully it's just a seal or gasket. :cheers:

Re: Gasoline Smell (GDP)

Thanks for the feedback. The problem ended up being the Fuel Pressure Regulator. Gotta love those inexpensive fixes. :seeya :)
