Thought I would get opinions from some of the experts on this forum before I call my dealer. I can smell gas inside my 94 RT. It isn't a strong smell but enough to bother me. There are no leaks on the floor either. I was told when I bought the car that if you overfill the tank, some gas will leak out but I never overfill it. Even with the heater on or off I can still smell it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Am confused as to how the smell is even getting in the car? I know what you will say snakbit, my pants aren't airtight, but it's not like the filler tube is in the cockpit.

LOL LOL neither are the panels on yer car, it gets in the pass. compartment through the mating surfaces of the panels. If ya think about it, the filler is prolly only 3 feet from yer head....


btw,,, airtight pants wouldn't hurt....... :D :headbang: :D :headbang:
