Air Conditioning Smells Like Gas
Once in a while when I'm running my A/C, I smell what I think is gasoline. This is odd, since the car doesn't appear to leak any fluids. How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Re: Air Conditioning Smells Like Gas
well i studied the system , realized the a/c draws in outside air from wiper area . since i had removed the rear hood seal i was pulling in hot eng. air/fumes . glad i had not thrown the seal away as many have done . re-installed seal , problem is gone . worked for me , hope it works you all .
