Dear Car Pros,
My 1989 Toyota Corolla Wagon exudes a very strong gasoline smell after I've parked it in my garage. The smell starts a few minutes after it's parked and takes hours to dissipate. My (new) mechanic said it was caused by a leak around loose bolts on the carburetor. He tightened the bolts but that has not fixed the problem. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
