My mechanic has replaced the fuel lines between the tank and the engine. But after the car sits for a day, it still smells inside the compartment. Now what?
He noticed that occasionally one of the fuel hoses on top of each injector leaks. Would that produce the inside smell? What is the normal procedure for replacing these? |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) Geoff nailed it. The smell in the cab could also be left over from the old leak. If the carpet at the pedal got soaked, it could smell for a while. Especially if the windows are rolled up all day. Still, make damn sure you have no leaks anywhere.
