Default Gas Smell

Lately I've been smelling gas when i open my air vents only when I am at idle.

Anyone have any ideas what needs to be replaced?

thanks

You may have a leaking vaccum line, or your fuel filter may be leaking. I'm pretty sure it's a leak somewhere. good luck!

I'm back. The smell only happens when I am idle.

It comes through my vents.

I am planning to replace my o rings.

Can someone please guide me on how to change them? DIY Guide


thank you

just changed mine the other day.
first you wanna relieve the fuel pressure(remove gas cap and find the screw on the fuel line, should be near the firewall, and loosen it till it leaks some gas.)
then, comming from the fuel rail should be wires going into the injectors... disconnect these.
then remove the fuel rail. once that comes off the four injectors should pop out easily... the o-rings are on the top of the injectors(if you buy an o-ring it usually comes in a kit with the other rings/washers... go ahead and replace those).
clean off any buildup on the injectors and coat the new rings with oil before placing them on.
then just put all that junk back on.
