yea, i took the cover off and started the car, no smell, took some hard tuns stopped to check and still no smell. the big gasket was in good shape when i installed it
I'd maybe check your fuel filler neck, though if that were leaking... you'd see a puddle I think.
I would maybe make SURE that the pump connectors are tight.
Honestly though... if you're only smelling it when you fill up, it might just be because you're at a gas station and you get it on your hand/clothes/shoes or something?

ok took back seat out and had the wife fill it up didnt get any smell, but as soon as i started to drive off it hit for a about a minute from the engine bay, so i changed all injector seals and o-rings, will try to fill it again in a few days.
its confusing me because there is no smell on cold or warm starts only after i put in some gas
