On my wifes 1997 960 wagon she has been smelling a strong gasoline odor in the mornings. Once the car has been a few miles it is no longer a problem the rest of the day. Thought perhaps it was the seal around the gas tank module or maybe even the fuel filler neck. Had a local shop pump smoke into the gas tank and filler neck but found no leaks. The shop also checked the pressed in plugs on the fuel rail and found no leaks. Not sure what else to check. The smell seems to enter into the car through the dash vents. Anyone run into this before? Need help and thanks for any insight.
