if you have a gas leak.
car smells of gas inside and out
If there is a gas smell inside a car the vehicle needs to be inspected for a gas leak. Stop driving the car and look for any holes in the gas tank. Leaking gas can be dangerous and can result in a fatal accident.
gas leak?
I have a 1990 Buick Century 3300. Just replace the Fuel Pressure Regulator. It was leaking gas. Replace the vacum lines to the Fuel Pressure Regulator but I still smell gas inside on the driver's side compartment. The smell goes away when opening the windows. Where would there be a fuel leak that would cause the raw gas smell inside the car but not outside of the car?
If there is a gas smell inside the passenger compartment of a car, there is probably an exhaust leak in the system. Have it checked immediately.
That happened to me I lit a match, chucked it in and hoped for the best.... :D(ended up calling fire brigade)B. The gas smell will eventually leave the inside of the car if you leave the windows down. I've added a related link to a webpage with a lot of recipes that will help you get rid of the gas smell and make the inside of your car smell better.
Yes.
You might have a gas leak in your front engine compartment. The heater pull in air from the front and therefore if you got a gas leak it will pull the smell in get it check asap.
You must take you car to a good garage and have a qualified mechanic check this out.
Barring any fuel leaks I would say that your charcoal canister is probably in need of replacement. they can fill up with liquid after some time making them useless and will smell of gas. Also it may be an exhaust leak if it is not an actual gasoline smell.
What color is the smoke? Black - running rich. Bluish - buring oil. White - burning coolant. When you smell the gas, it is inside or outside the minivan? Back of the car or near the front?
yes nd it will also give of a oily smell with it
