How long has it been since you fixed the sketchy fuel hoses? If it's been a while and you can still smell fuel, then there's another leak somewhere. If you can't find a leak in the engine bay or underneath, then maybe pull up the back seat and check the lines to the fuel pump.
A while back, I was having some mysterious engine problems - turned out it was the fuel pressure regulator. And at one point, the increased pressure caused one of the fuel hoses to pop off. A faulty FPR is definitely a possibility.
So I would find the leak, and check the fuel pressure. |
