When I leave my car sitting overnight I have a bad Fuel smell in my garage that I have never had. When I first crank it it turns over but takes around 30 seconds to finally start. Once started and throughout the day there seems to be no issues. It starts immediatly. The problem seems to happen as the car sits for more than a couple of hours.

Welcome to the forum, have the trouble codes check, see if there are any evap codes? Some of the national brand autostores will check some codes for free.

You can check fuel line and connectors, see if you can find any visible leaks, under the vehicle, under the hood. Also, use fuel pressure gage, see if pressure holds after you turn the key off.
