Hey Guys,
I've got a strong smell of gas while I am driving and after I turn the vette off. I've checked vacuum lines and they look OK. I've checked to make sure the gas cap is tight and I have no leaks from the fuel pump.
I just had the thermostat changed and noticed that the Thermal Valve Switch on top of the thermostat was broken. Could this possibly cause a strong gas smell?
Since the car is as we all know is getting older, and the previous owners have tinkered in the engine compartment: there are a couple of vacuum lines that have been blocked off. I am guessing, because the air pump has been removed. Would anyone have a diagram handy showing where the vacuum lines would be hooked up to the carb.
I am reaching for anything that would help..............:confused
