I would check the piece of rubber hose that is behind the firewall in the engine compartment. It is directly above the starter and can be seeping causing your smell. Fix it quick since it may dripping gas on top of your starter!

This one is driving me nuts. I can smell gas when I come towards the van, especially near the sliding door. I've been from one end to the other inspecting the gas lines and I've check the hoses and expansion tanks on both sides. Everything looks dry. Where else to look? Thanks, Bryan |
