nothing major as of right now but i do have a SERVICE D coming up and would like someone to try and find the gas smell im getting because ive spent hours and hours and cant find the source. ive searched and gone thru all the threads about the dreaded gas smell but short of it being the actual gas tank i cant find where its coming from. plus im very busy with work and sometimes may just decide to let someone else do the smaller things like brakes and gaskets and such. thanks

Did you check the gasket on the fuel pulse dampner on the fuel rail?

I recommend Autoscope, the Park Cities location. Ask for Carson. You can tell him I sent you. The picture in my signature was taken at Autoscope.

Parkplace does some good work too
They installed a fully built motor for one of our customers
