Smells problem
2001 Honda Civic 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 155TKm miles

I notice this lately that when the heater is turned on (winter), the smell of gas permeates the cabin. Is this caused by Intake manifold gasket leak or engine block is cracked?

Check your fuel injectors fopr signs of dampness. If they are they need replacement

It is injector related but don't replace the injectors. There are seals or o rings that can be purchased at the auto parts store. Simple job to replace and very inexpensive.
