Before you spend a lot of money try tightening the hose clamps on the hoses
going to and from the gas tank. They are located in the engine compartment
way down on the drivers side and close to the footwell. As these hoses age
they tend to shrink when cold and expand when hot. When cold they can seep
just enough petrol to smell. Snug the clamps up a little and see if it helps.
