gas smell but no leaks
I have a rich running motor but I cant figure it out
if I drive for a while and shut her down I get a bad gas smell but I cannot find a leak
Its pretty much all new and i am starting to think that it is the injectors leaking after I shut it down
I was wondering if anyone else had a problem like this

Re: gas smell but no leaks
I drove mine a few times and smelled gas... looked all over for leaks and couldn't find any.
One day, the motor hydro-locked (wouldn't roll over cause a cylinder was full of fuel). I took the plugs out one-by-one until fuel poured out of one of the spark plug holes. Thus the new Ford injectors in my sig

Re: gas smell but no leaks
I'd definitely take a look at your injectors. It sounds like the same thing that happened to me. I got some Accel's, but should have gotten the Ford.
