I had been smelling gasoline when standing outside the vehicle for a while. Took to repair shop who found gasoline on top of the tank. When tank was dropped, it was found that the top of the fuel pump as well as all the metal lines had rusted through and fuel was leaking out. Repair included new fuel lines and new fuel pump.
