Most likely it's the A/C further accentuating your fuel problem b/c it's placing more strain on the engine. I haven't looked at your other thread but I'd start with the basics, check the rail pressure and each individual injector and then work backwards to the filter and the tank/pump.

My apologies for the late reply after i found the cause of the fuel smell...Im in Korea at the moment and this is the soonest i could get on....The damn schrader valve was loose and fuel was dripping out very slowly but enough to smell it lol...easy fix though.,...thanks for the tips...Semper Fi
