I have a 1998 Toyota Corolla, which drives well and in great condition. Just today, I started smelling fuel in the car after I started it. The smell was so strong I had to drive with the back windows partially down. I checked the fuel tank cap didn't find anything unusual.

Any idea where the smell is coming from?
