Now, When driving the car it smells like fuel a lot. When I pop the hood you can smell it coming from the left side somewhere. It smells like unburnt fuel so I'm not sure where it's at. I looked at the lines and they were fine. I checked the filter and it looked fine. I'm getting the constant pressure in my fuel line, around 43psi. I took out the injectors and he O-rings were fine. What else could it be. I dont want my car to catch fire but I'm not sure whhere is coming from. Anyone ever have this problem?

try checking the EVAP lines to the charcoal canister if you still have that. and the fuel return hardline under the intake manifold. the hoses and the line itself tends to deteriorate under road vibration and such.

Its your Injector rings or something on the fuel rail. Feel around with your fingers and every now and then smell your fingers for fuel. My injector O ring had a very slight cut in it and it caused a lot of fuel to leak by my injector.
