porridgebird Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hi yall. I have a 94 sev6 pathfinder and I noticed a strong gas smell coming into the cab on the way home today. Ive checked for wet evidence of a leak but none found. Any Ideas? Thanx in advance It smells strong in the front of engine when I popped hood and inspected. Nothing noticed with fuel lines from tank forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The rubber elbows on the injector rails tend to leak. Happened on my '95. Tightening the hose clamps (they're tricky to get to but not bad once you figure out where they are) solved the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamzan Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 If you look right to the left of the distributor you will see one of the lines he is talking about. It is a straight 3-4" piece of hose. I've replaced mine once and the replacement is already doing the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobsteriffic Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Yup, those hose clamps are tiny little buggers. I dealt with the same issue for 2 years because it would only get bad/noticeable during the winter season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
