I recently noticed the smell of fuel entering my cab while driving. it tends to show up at stoplights after the vehicle is warmed up. I do not see or smell any signs of fuel near the tank or along the vent line. Also The EVAP canister does not smell like it has been fuel saturated. What I have noticed is that immediately after driving when I exit the vehicle there is a strong gas smell coming from the engine compartment, and the oil smells a little like gas I think. this has me wondering if the fuel pressure regulator is to blame, but there is no gas coming out of the vacuum side of the regulator, and the truck runs well and starts easy with no indication that there could be a fuel pressure issue.
any ideas?
thanks in advance for your help.
