i smell fuel through vent and sometimes outside no leaks in the rear or front and then there are some days you don t smell it can recirculate the vents then you will not smell inside were should i check for a hose or line or maybe fuel filter location?

If the smell isn't always noticable I'd say it's an o ring for the tank or charcol canister. Does it smell only when you top off the tank?
