I noticed on my way home from work last night that I was smelling gasoline. From the point that I smelled it, I was about 8 miles from home. I was watching the gas gauge and I used a 1/8 of a tank. I know that my lifters are bad, but I think there might be a gas leak. Does anyone know common places where to look for a gas leak or where the gas lines run?

If you smell gas, you have a leak. The most common place is the steel fuel line close to the fuel tank. Check under the car on the driver's side. Check near where the second seat starts. Look for wet lines and rust.

Let me know what you find.
