I bought a 2002 Stingray 200lx 3 weeks ago. It has been sitting in my garage since that time. However the carpet in the ski locker is soaking wet. When i walk into the garage i smell a faint odor of gasoline, but when i touch the wet carpet it doesn't smell like gas. Is this a problem, or is it just stagnant water that hasn't dried. I'm wouldn't think that any fuel line would be anywhere besides the engine compartment. Thanks, Matt

Re: Faint Gas Smell

If you smell gas fumes, they are coming from somewhere. Find out where. The sources may be as inconsequential as a tank vent, or as important as a leak in the bilge.
