unburned fuel odor

Disallow 4 May 2005 06:56:58
 Hey all,

98 civic lx (canadian) 220000kms, 5 speed. I let
the car sit for a 4-5 days, then took it for a
boot on the highway yesterday. Today when I got
in and started driving, I noticed a definite
unburned gas smell. Not so severe that it smells
like its pouring out somewhere, but bad enough to
bug me.

Any ideas? The car has 3 month old wires, 1.5 year old
plugs, new dist cap and rotor in november. Mileage
has been OK, not stellar, I get 460kms on 35 litres
of gas, so about 12-13 KM/L or 28-32 Miles/US gall.
Located in Canada. Have not run any injector
cleaner for a while.

I did a visual inspection of the fuel system. No
drips visible. Injectors looked OK. I was
reminded that I am due for a fuel filter change,
I have one sitting in my trunk I haven't gotten
around to changing it as yet.

No hard starting, running fantastic, good acceleration
etc etc... Just the odor.

Any ideas?

Terry

Including under the carpets on the driver's side
where the fuel lines run along the doorsill?

Brine from winter salt soaks into carpets and tends
to rust out floorboards and fuel lines.
