Don't know if this is the right spot.

Move this if it is in the wrong section. I have a problem that when I turn on my heat, I can smell fuel coming through the vents and it is enough to make your eyes water. I turned down the fuel pressure but that didn't help so what else can I do? Do we have a cabin filter? Do you think that could be it? I can't find where the fuel could be leaking from and it holds fuel pressure for three hours going from 46 psi down to 44 1/2 psi in those three hours. Thanks for any help that you guys can give me.

Are you sure it's fuel and not antifreeze?

Could be an exhaust leak, or if it smells kind of sweet, a bad heater core. I have both problems.

Re: Don't know if this is the right spot.

It's the heater core you monkey turd. Remember when you asked about the fog on the window, that's the heater core. I could hook you up with a lifetime warranty Transpro, brand spanking new for $18. Call me and I will get it for you. I still have two in stock but have four at the hub. Quit using that Blue Devil coolant fixer stuff cause I don't think that stuff works. Hit me up chump!
