I have a '95 6 cyl Mustang and just recently when I have my vents going, I get a extremely strong gas smell inside the car. If I open up the hood, I can not smell anything under there or underneith the car. I don't see any fuel leaks anywhere, and my fuel lines all appear to be nice and dry. Does this have something to do with the charcoal canister? Where is it located on this car? And where do the vents on this car pull air in from?

Thanks!

You might want to look at your injectors, sometimes the o-rings tend to leak when the car is running. If the car just sits there though you wont get any leak. I had this problem happen to me on my 95 and i replaced all the injector o-rings just in case.
