When I purchased the car the previous owner told me about this. Previous owner had replaced or worked on most if not all of the hoses. He was the 2nd owner. He said he was never able to find any leaks. I assumed it was in the carpet.

I replaced the carpet (tried to shampo it but it still stunk). I cleaned the trunk up left it open a few days and there was no smell. Put the carpet in, thinking it was fixed. A week later and the trunk was full of fumes when I just opened it.

I do not think there is a fuel leak. I can smell some fumes around the gas gap. I suspect that the trunk lid does not seal up tight and the fumes are leaking in from the cap.

Does this sound plauseable?
