Why does my 1996 Odyssy with 250,000 miles suddenly smell strongly of
gasoline? There is nothing leaking from it. I've looked under the hood and
everything looks to be in order. When I get out of the car after a drive, it
reeks of gas. What's up? Thanks!

 

Because it has a leak. Could be tank, lines or anywhere gas flows. Better
get it checked out before it goes boom.

before getting too worried, make sure you didn't just get gas on your
shoe at the pump. otherwise, if it's leaking, there will be spillage
somewhere.
