I asked my brother in law why I was smelling gas. I am wanting to know if he's correct.
When I started the car and got out to check my back tires. I smelled gas. Now, when I got the car 2 months ago. I noticed that it idle's high. at 2. I wait for it to come down before I put it in reverse.
I was told that it was my Air Filter. To replace it and then also take off the positive battery cable thing for 10 min. This will release the settings that my car has made for itself
due to having a Dirty Filter. And the car will default to its original settings.
Doing this will make my car not idle like it is. And the gas smell will go away.
I have a 7 month old baby. I'm scared to drive it because of the gas smell. Can anyone tell me if this is the correct information?
I am assuming that this problem is the reason that my check engine light flashes on and off everynow and again when I am driving at speeds of 60+.
But I have other electical issues, that work on rare occasion. Dome light, light above door handle. Heck my door locks have never worked for me. lol. And I have replaced all the fuses for these possible problems.
I am wondering if there not all connected by some type of wireing.
Am I correct?
It would be nice if I could replace the Air Filter and all those other issues disappeared.. lol
Thank You Deanna
