Several things can cause a Multiple Cylinder Misfire. First and most obvious are your spark plugs and wires. If they havent been changed within the last year that you can remember its time to change them. Faulty Crankshaft sensor would also cause this to happen but is unlikely.

Well, a code 43 is telling you that you have multiple misfires. The code 27 is a problem with your fuel injectors. Given this and the fact that you smell gas, I would suspect a gas leak at the fuel rail or in the line. Interrupted fuel supply would certianly cause a misfire.
