In the last few days I have begun to smell fuel vapors being emitted from my engine compartment. THe smell seems to be coming from the drivers side of the compartment. I am unable to isolate the source of the vapors. Is there a likely source of the vapor? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Check the injectors for signs of leaks while it is running.Also follow the fuel lines to be sure they havent rubbed on anything.Look at the fuel rail real close, Chrysler had some plastic ones that leaked at the seams
