Recently as ive been driving the smell of gas arises when i accelerate. The smell kind of goes away when I come to a stop but its still there.

Ideas for things to check? Ive checked the seals in the trunk to the gas tank and i dont see anything wrong with any of them. Im I running super rich? My exhaust has also been extra poppy (not sure if that has anything to do with it)

I need some idea of what to start looking at/for. Thanks for any help.

Evap canister in the passenger side of the engine bay

Check your evap lines where the fuel pump is located under the parcel shelf in the rear. I had a black hard evap line that had a hole in it from rubbing on a metal pinch weld and opened up letting in gases in the cabin.

Ive checked those and didnt see anything super obvious, but the car was off and gas evaporates pretty fast so Ill recheck those. Im going over to a buddies house later so ill be able to check those while the car is running/revving

Clamps on the filler neck hose loose?

^that was my original thought, but they seem to be fine

You should just sell it, you'd make a profit nowadays in this market. :roll: GL

What sideshow says as well.

You can pull the evap hoses a little and get a flash light to look in there. Twist and turn i a bit. The hard line hoses are connected to a valve. If there is a hole, it'll look very small.

Are you throwing a code?

i call that....a freebie

maybe your spark plugs are too tight? sometimes that makes the car run "rich"

mini: ill do that. And no its not throwing any codes

Dmn: im not sure how to check that, they seem normal to me
