So I am driving, turn on my heater, I get a strong smell of gasoline blowing thru the vents. This doesn't happen always, but it happens enough to drive me nuts, especially when it really cold outside. Help please.

YOU WILL NEED TO GET TO THE MOTOR AND FIND THE FUEL LINES AND INSPECT THEM FOR A FUEL LEAK. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT U DO THIS SOON. SOMETHING IS JUST LOOSE OR NOT SEALING PROPERLY AND THE FUMES ARE GETTING INTO THE HEATER CASE.
