Gas smell after shop changed plugs and coils
I have an Acura TL with 261k miles.
I just had my plugs and coils changed for a tune up by a shop and I had no codes before I gave it to them and have no codes now but right after I drove it afterwards it smelt like gas inside the car. What could have caused this? Loose or cross threaded plug? |

Re: Gas smell after shop changed plugs and coils
i agree with jeff;
i hope it is just a tech that got lazy and used carb cleaner to spray out plug holes; or the helper didn't put a plastic protector on your seats, before he climbed in, with a gas soaked coverall, to move it to the lot.. but yes, you should see if a line might have gotten bent/kinked/chaffed when serviced.. |
