Outback Aaron Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Does anyone know what is wrong with my car. Its a 2000 Legacy Outback, and when I open the AC vent and have the AC off, and the fresh air open on my HVAC system, it smells like Gas. If I hit the air recirculation button the gas smell goes away. Checked the fuel filter and there are no leaks there. Any suggestions?

coloradosubarules Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 maybe you do have a leak and you just can't see it because gas tends to evap quickly. Maybe it was from some POS in front of you? Pop your hood and light a match while the car is running. This will pinpoint the leak....and get you a new car. Please don't do that. I wish you luck my friend. Is it a gas gas smell or exhaust like smell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 You could have a tiny hole in the gas tank. The fumes can be drawn into the cabin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
