under the hood would be leaky line somewhere...i dont know about the vents, the only smell ive ever had from the vents is antifreeze in my bmw

You know, I have the same issue w/ my '71 Buick Electra. Occasionaly I'll smell fuel in cabin, not exhaust by gas.

I'll be watching to see what others say.

Check your fuel line from filter to engine for cracks in the rubber (by now you probably have) People forget to r/r hoses,both vacuum and fuel every 2yrs,guess what? whenever you do a tune up or every 2 yrs you should always check all rubber lines as heat and age tendsa to dry out rubber and you can guess what happens next. I have aquired many veery good cars simply b/c people develop a problem that is actually small (usually about .10 cents worth) and thinking they have a bad engine.so they ditch a perfectly good car and waist thousands on another b/c of a .10 cent piece of hose.
