check your cat

edit: And stop naming all your threads "HELP!!!" it's annoying. Besides, its a rule of the forums to title your threads aptly, so that we don't have to click to know the contents.

Remove the drivers side back seat bottom. Remove the silver cover on the floor board. Look for any visible signs of gas leaking around the fuel pump and fuel lines.
You can check the opposite side too. Same cover plate on passenger side. Check for leaks.
I would suggest getting the car on a lift and look at the fuel lines underneath.

It's gonna be the cover piece. The white top of the fuel pump where the elbow is. I've seen this before. It's not the line but the pump top itself at the elbow. Look at that first.
