Default i smell gas


alright...a couple nights ago, i got out of my car, and there was a strong smell of gas....i searched and searched my engine bay, under the car, no leaks, the hoses are all good, and the fuel filter was replace 3000 miles ago....i dont smell gas on the passenger side under the hood, but right at my egr, which has been bad for like a year now, and it smells the strongest.....could this be because i need an egr?

answered my own question today...fpr....while car is on, gas pours out from the regulator....turn car off, and the gas has evaporated by the time you stop the car and pop the hood, so i couldnt find the leak....bought a new one today, but i think i shouldve gone with the 94 corvette lt1 regulator, lol...but theres a $70 difference

just buy saturn-specific parts and you'll be ok, if you have to spend the money, do it. it'll save you a lot of time/money/hassle down the road

Hey Usher,
Glad you figured it out. Next time give me a call, I would have thrown you one of those reg's for $20 bucks!
