Take the back seat out and look for leaks, check to make sure the fuel filter fittings are tight since the fuel filter is near your heater vent ducting.

My car always smells like gas after I eat mexican food. But I think I've pin-pointed that problem...

I had the same problem before. It turned out to be a small screw hole under the back seat from a previous owner. JB Weld fixed that ****!
