car smells like gas after it sits the garage over night. I know a few people on here as had this problem. What do I need to do to fix this. I've done searches this and no one seem to explain it in great detail.

I'm using a fuel cell if that helps.

Do you have the evap hooked up? The evap collects the vapors and runs it through a charcoal box i think.

GM_GUY

No I don't. That can't be it because I know a few guys that have the stuff deleted for there car and there car doesn't smell like gas in there garage. Thanks though

Mine doesn't smell at all and I have a 35 year old, vented cap, gas tank. Are you sure you don't have any leaks? I know that when my fuel pump was leaking just a little it would stink up the garage pretty quickly. (When the garage is attached to the house and the wife can smell gas in the bedroom, she makes you go out and fix it asap.)

I've been all over that car and there are no leaks. I had the car runninng for 30 minutes no leaks.

Do they have the evap deleted or the egr and air; all different things. With out the evap nothing is there to catch the fumes, like in a carburated car.

I don't have the evap system on mine and it doesn't smell. Most of the smell from the carb'd cars comes from the fuel that just sits in the bowls.
