Fuel smell???

ON the new 1994 Z28 I faintly had noticed fuel when I first test drove the car (it was low on fuel) but once I fueled it up it went away... I figured it was something to do with the gas cap not being on properly. Well today I kept getting random smells of fuel; mainly when the car would go WOT. As the fuel level got lower, the smell got stronger.

It's dark out but I quickly looked at the rail, injectors, and all fuel lines. I don't see any leaks. Anything else I should be looking at?

Oh and the gas cap doesn't release any pressure when I take it off.


on another note I hope the fuel economy gets a hair better. Went through 3/4 of a tank and drove 120 miles (being a bit on the abusive side) with 4.56's and 275/40/17's.
