Everytime I start the car up and run for awhile can smell strong gas odor. Actually after I drive it and let it idle thats when the gas odor is the stongest. Well had the fuel fiter changed about 4 months ago starting smelling it then, but was not strong odor at that time but has gradually gotten worse. Anybody with an answer? Thanks

Check your fuel pressure regulator and see if it is leaking. It is located by your throttle body. It has a vaccum hose connect to it. If it is leaking there will be fuel in the hose
