Is it gassy... or exhausty?

 

This would be better in General Tech, so I'll move it.

 

its a gassy smell not exhaust..

It's like a 15-year-old car. What about a hole (corrosion) in the fuel tank where it sloshes out sometimes?

Any other fuel-leak scenario I can think of, won't matter whether you're braking or driving forwards or backwards or parked.
