Smells problem
1995 Geo Prizm 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 153K miles

Hi, Thanks a lot for your help. I have a fuel smell in the cab. It is a very feight smell , and is there only when the car has been sitting still overnight or all day. I have not been able to smell anything under the hood. Do you think it might be a clogged fuel filter? Can you think of any other possible causes.

Check the entire fuel system, from the hard lines from the tank to the purge cannister, the rubber fuel lines, fuel rail and connections to the rail and fuel filter.

Fuel leaks are dangerous and should be fixed ASAP.
