Hi, I have a 1995 J30. When I crank it up in the morning, there is a strong fuel smell that lasts until I have been driving for about 10 minutes, then it is fine...anyone know what this might be? Oxygen sensor? Car is running great...

Many Thanks!

Robin

ill get yoda or driverdriver to sticky this

pop your hood on a dead cold start and then crank it. then look over all your fuel lines to see which ones are leaking. i would not continue to drive it much until you fix it because it can lead to engine fires.

Wish I could..
Just a plain ole member. lol
Mine were the lines toward the front under the throttle cable cover.
Put new clamps on and all was well.
When I pull the Plenum this summer I will be replacing all the rubber lines.
