I have had problems with gas leaks in my car. We found one big leak. Now if I am driving and come to a stop I smell it again, but when I am driving it doesn't smell at all. Can anyone help. please, I really don't want another car catching on fire.

put your key in the "on" position, making sure it doesn't go into the "start" position. It'll turn on your fuel pump and turn off the car. Look for the leak then.

z32 commonly has a leak under the plenum. i reccomen every z32 owner take a lesson from the q45 people and pull the plenum and replace all hoses every so often. could still be something else. thats just whats most common.
