Default Strong smell of fuel

Hello CL,

I have a stock 1jz sc400...for the past couple of months now the smell of fuel in my cabin is just getting stronger. I do have the warm start problem, even sometimes when engine is cold still have the start problem. I replaced my Fuel pump ECU and CTS still have the same issue. But now my concernd is the strong fuel smell..maybe i have a leak somewhere, smell is a lot stronger in driver side.. Does anyone here has a diagram of the fuel lines from the tank to engine? Im gonna try and see if i find any sign of crack lines..

Thanks a lot...

Have you look into your fuel pressure regulator?

I installed my AFPR KIT a while back and the gauge seems to read just fine, steady a little above 40psi on idle. its tuned wit Apex Neo also on stock boost. All i have put in so far is wideband, boost gauge, Apex Neo and AFPR KIT.
