Re: Gas smell
i get a really strong exhaust smell when i have the windows down and i stop at a stop light... is this normal? might it have something to do with that the exhaust currently doesnt have a catalytic converter at the moment?

Re: Gas smell
I have a 1995 Honda Odyssey that when idles i smell gas, sometimes its real strong outside car on 100 degree days, but today (only low 90's) I left it idling for 20 or 30 minutes after driving 30 miles home so my husband could smell & you could faintly smell in car??? Please help, i'm desperate. I have been told it could be fuel vapor canister, but mechanic said he didn't know for sure & could try it but it costs $250 for a "possible" fix.

Re: Gas smell
start the car and look at your injectors.. i had the same problem with my hatch and could not find a leak anywhere.. come to find out the o-rings on my injector were leaking.. switched them out and the smell went away.. just a thought
