Ran a search but came up with nothing. Ok I've noticed over the past couple of days that after I'm finished driving my car, I get out and smell gas. I've narrowed the gas smell down in certain areas of the car. If I stick my nose in either driver of passenger side front wheel wells, it's very strong. Or if I smell below the rear bumber, very strong as well. Has anyone had this problem before? Is there a part that tends to go bad? Any advice/input would be greatly appreciated. Vehicle is a 95' c280.

Thanks

a common leak on the 104 engines is the fuel pressure port. there is a copper seal ring. try that first. pull out the plastic cover next to the valve cover and that will expose the fuel rail. then start the car and see if you see fuel leaking out the pressure port or any of the injectors.
