You smell gas sometimes when driving your 98 Oldsmobile eighty-eight. A mechanic said that its a gas leak but doesnt know where. What are the possible reasons for a gas leak with this vehicle?

Okay, a fuel leak can occur at any point in the fuel lines, which on an olds are probably alluminum pipes from the tank to the firewall, at which point they turn to a rubber hose to the injectors or carbeuretor. (You have injectors). If you want to find it yourself, grab a few rags, some flour, and a few hours free time.
Follow the fuel lines from the gas tank, and wipe them clean and dry. Dip out some flower, and coat the lines. Anywhere fuel leaks after running the lines should be visible as a wet flour clump.
