I used to run race fuel (leaded 110 octane) in my car all the tme, never had any fuel smell when parked in garage. Although a couple of occasions I had to put super-unleaded in it to get it home, although it was usually no more than five gallons at a time. Everytime I did this it would have a very strong gas smell in the garage, I had seen some articles on steel-braided line and the possibility of gas seepage thru them. With todays chemicals and crap in gas I could believe that. I am fairly sure that was cause in my case, even though I did use Earl's hose and Aeroquip fittings. Can honestly say never had the problem with the race fuel I guess it was of better quality since it was about $4.50 a gallon.
