I made a post earlier but I feel as I should be more descriptive. I have a 95 S14 with an S13 SR. The entire cabin of the car CONSTANTLY smells like fuel. I've checked the Evap lines from the trunk and they're fine. It's only the cabin as well. Neither the trunk nor the engine bay has the smell which I find very weird. I don't know what could be causing this but if anyone could give me advice on what to check that would be very appreciated.

Just the other day I had the same problem on my S14... I had a leak on one of the lower hoses, one located way below the fuel filter right before it went into the hardline... just a small little cut on the hose and it stank up my ride ... fuel made it's way from that hose down the hardline and the smell cane in thru where the shifter is, so I would look there bud

did you replace the o ring in the fuel tank when you did your pump?

I did not. I will check that when I go looking where Anthony said this weekend

Somebody has been reading your threads. Haha, if you just did your fuel pump and left the cover gasket out that would explain a gas smell inside the car. Another common error is crimping the wires when putting it in place.

I've checked the tank, capped off the ventilation hardline, replaced the fuel pump gasket, and I'm STILL getting a smell when I park it after driving it and sometimes while I'm driving. I have NO CLUE what could be leaking. Anybody??
