My 280SE 4.5 has a gasoline smell
Is it a leaking fuel line? Needs a new fuel pump? It's really strong when running.
Thanks! |

no way
we can tell. you will just have to do it the old fashoned way...look. follow the fuel lines from the engine all the way back to the tank and find the source of the smell.

most common is the fuel hoses for the inj system on the engine.
keep a fire extinguisher handy. your living in dangerous times. best checked cold. they leak real good at this time. george |
