After I fueled up the other day I noticed a fuel smell when I opened the trunk. I have noticed it somewhat in the past but just figured I may have splashed some during gassing up,but notthis time. Was wondering if it could be the gas cap. There is no fuel visible anywhere. The car is a 1994 GT convertible.

Try the cap, get under and do a good visual.

May be the rubber grommet/seal that is between the tank and fill tube.

Thanks for the ideas. I will give it a shot. Oddly I only get the gas fumes when the tank is full.
