Yo Doug,
Did you recently fill the car up completely? Have you noticed any seepage or stains around the fuel tank sending unit on top of the L/H tank? Perhaps the rubber gasket needs to be replaced?

Gulp, not to my recollection and it’s been about 15years since I’ve had the car. I sorta looked up in there but nothing jumped out at me from the engine compartment. Is that one of those things I have to go thru the wheel well? I did replace the hoses between each carb but the hoses on top of the passenger side fuel tank are nigh impossible to get to from engine compartment. No hint of leakage but just thinking it through – if it’s a mist and not a puddle – that would equal stinko AND a nice combustible medium, eh>? Any help is appreciated Thanks DOUG

Since we are talking about a car that is at least 32 years old, have all of the fuel hoses been replaced yet? How about the infamous fuel filler neck hose? (between the filler neck and the left side fuel tank)

Yikes – a carbed 308 GTS
No apparent gushing – no wet spots on the floor – but a definite smell.
Any hints of common trouble spots?
