When I have my heat on and I am at a stop sign or in the idle mode, there is a huge smell of gas in the interior of the car. I think that it is a leak but I am not sure. Is there anything you would recommend I do?
Thanks

I woulds open the hood, look for ANY leaks fix it, may not be real safe to drive until you solve this...the other suspect are is the filler tube for the gas tank, they are known to develop pinhole rust after a few years, Check engine light on?

I have opened the hood and there is no leak at all. Also there is no leak on the floor of my garage. Thanks for your help. I might just have to tighten the hose and see what happens. thats what the guy at autozone told me to do
