Stephen,
In addition to the items already mentioned, unless you're certain the fuel
lines have been changed in the last few years, change the fuel line from the
fuel tank to the fuel pump and from the fuel pump to fuel filter and from
the filter to the carb and replace the fuel filter. Good insurance even if
they're not leaking.

Subject: [DeTomaso] gas fumes
hi guys - after driving the car and after parking in the garage (closed) for
a few minutes, I come back into the garage to a very strong smell of
gasoline - the car was (and is each time) run for a good long time, at temp
and at speed - what would you check as to cause? - there is no obvious leak
(certainly nothing dripping or the like) - could it be leftover in the carb?
- to my inexperienced ear the car seems to run fine as to the carb - not
rich not lean - of course, i am not sure i would know otherwise - any
thoughts are appreciated - thanks, stephen
