LPG leak.
From a point at sea, to the circles of your mind, this is Neil
Cummins:
Hmm. A bit worrying - I thought it was normal to smell gas when driving an
LPG vehicle. My 110 V8, which is fitted with a BRC kit constantly smells of
gas when driving - standing still with the engine running is worst. Is it
worth checking for links between the air filter and carb?
Despite what the others are saying, I can't see how anything can
escape from a leaking inlet manifold. The inlet tract is a low
pressure zone - it may draw stuff *in* through a leak, but it's not
going to let it *out*; not while the engine is running. I s'pose it
may be something to do with harmonic pulses or some such highfalutin
stuff which cleverer people than me know about. I'd take a bit of
convincing about that, though.
On t'other hand, I can sometimes smell LPG when stationary with the
windows open. I reckon it's simply coming from the exhaust.
