Gas odor after running
#1
Hey all, time to query the collective brain…I own a 1988 3100 Fly. Engines are gas 454’s with 1800 hours. Before running, I need to pump the throttles 5-10 to get them to fire. No fuel smell whatsoever. After running in gear at temp for a while (10-15 minutes at least), then I dock and stop the engines, there is a very strong smell of fuel in the cabin, even with the blowers running. There is no obvious sign of wet fuel anywhere in the engine compartment, and the engines run perfectly throughout their range. Any suggestions?
