Folks,
My Jeep started to give off a strong smell of gasoline, coming from the left (driver) side -- middle section. The smell comes from somewhere outside the cabin, in front of the refueling opening (not from the opening itself,) possibly from the upper area of the fuel tank. The smell is noticeable shortly after starting the engine, and continues for as long as the engine is running and for about two hours after engine shut-down. There are no obvious gas leaks. Has anybody else experienced the same? Any suggestions? Obviously, I need to get this thing fixed immediately due to fire hazard. Would be helpful to know the possible cause before taking the Jeep to the dealer/mechanic.
Thanks for any help, Hovav Frenkel San Antonio, TX
