What would be some causes, other than broken/leaky fuel line, that would cause the whole cabin of a car to fill with the smell of fuel?
I had this happen recently.
Then I remembered I was driving around with one of those 1 gal. gasoline jugs for an evening.
Also, I should mention that it only does it when the heater is on, and I'm sitting still with the car running, in park or at a stop sign/light...
Then I would suspect the fuel lines or Fuel Pressure regulator.....FPR is. The car has new fuel injectors, with only about 5000 miles on them, 4500 of them being miles that I have put on the car. But then again, they are ~3 years old though.
The sound from your cricket...., I mean blower bearing has nothing to do with the the smell of gas. Chances are the blower fan is about to go out. That is an easy fix and I would not worry about it until it breaks (might be a month, might be 2 years).... Also, I did notice that my blower motor for my heater is making a strange noise, kind of like a cricket. I think the bearings are going out, could that be any part of it?
