Strangely, This problem didn't show up until I had driven the car a few times and filled the tank. While it was not registered, just idling in the driveway, there was no gas smell. I drove the car a few times and still no odor. I put $10 in the tank yesterday and now, every time I get in the car, ther is a strong gas smell. It is strongest in the trunk where the tank is. I can't find any leaks. Is this normal?

94teener may have nailed it. I had the tank out a little over a week ago. It is in exceptional condition but when I put it back in, I was not able to locate the hole in the bottom of the car to allow the spill tube to drain properly. I'll try to take care of this and see if it helps. Thanks.
