Problem Reports

 Rookie

There is a fuel smell under the hood especially in the morning when I start it when it is warming up. The smell is strong inside the car also. I have found fuel at the end of the fuel rail, but can't find where it is coming from. Checked wires hoses no luck.I did have an emissions code set once, changed the gas cap, hasn't helped.
also off and on turns over several times before it will start. almost like it isn't getting fuel. Don't know if 2 are related.
Please help.

every morning when starting up theres a strong fuel smell inside vehicle that last about 5 min. is there a solution to this problem

I had this same problem--was worse when the heater was on. My mechanic thought at first it was an exhaust issue, but his fix didn't solve the problem. We finally figured out two weeks ago it came from the fuel pressure regulator. Cost about $88 and 45 minutes to fix. Now it's all dandy :)

My problem is the same as some others here. There is a fuel smell every morning a lasts only for a little bit. I just noticed the issue so I don't know how long it has been going on and I haven't looked yet for a solution to it.

Having the same gas smell issue when I start my car, with heater on, to warm up in the morning. Going to try the fuel pressure regulator and see if helps.
