Smelling Fuel 900

posted by  someone claiming to be DS960 on  Fri Sep 5 08:11 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Hi All,

I've been noticing the last few days the smell of fuel through the vents ONLY WHEN FIRST STARTED. It immediately goes away thereafter. I'm also still chasing an intermittent missing on one cylinder, but today at lunch, it was REALLY bad. It only does it at idle. I've hooked up my OBD2 reader, and it reports nothing. No codes whatsoever. I don't smell fuel when opening the hood either. It really worries me, as I don't want to be driving a bomb. I checked the fuel rail at both ends, no leaks. Any possible ideas?? Looks to me like a stop at the local indy Volvo mechanic is in my near future...
