two things, exhaust has a leak of gases or fuel leak from engine bay
In my experience, my fuel pressure regulator went bad. It was injecting too much fuel through the injectors, causing leakage. Very scary, seeing all it would take is one spark and...
There is a fuel leak in the engine compartment. Have a mechanic look at the engine.
If you smell gas in your 1995 Chevy Cavalier when the heater is on, it could indicate a leak in the fuel system that is being drawn into the ventilation system when the heater is running. This could be due to a faulty fuel line or fuel injector. It is important to address this issue immediately as it presents a potential fire hazard and can affect the vehicle's performance.
Apparantly it was either installed wrong or there is something wrong with the replacement pump.
It's under the fuel filter inside of the fuel filter housing. It also blows out fuse number 22 when the heating element shorts out.
I believe it is a bad fuel injector or a gasket on one of the fuel injectors. Check all of them. They are right on top of the engine and not that hard to check.
If you smell gas coming out of the vents when you turn on the heater in your 1997 Ford Contour, it could indicate a fuel leak or an issue with the fuel system. This might be due to a failing fuel line, a damaged fuel injector, or exhaust gases entering the cabin. It's important to address this immediately, as it poses a safety hazard. Have a qualified mechanic inspect the vehicle to diagnose and fix the problem.
If your car smells like gas when you turn on the heater, it could indicate a fuel leak in the engine or fuel system. The heater draws air from the engine compartment, and if there's a leak, the gas fumes can be pulled into the cabin. Additionally, a malfunctioning fuel injector or a damaged fuel line might contribute to the odor. It's crucial to address this issue immediately, as it can be a fire hazard.
Check under the hood for an obvious fuel leak. You might an injector leaking.
probally wired the pump wrong
May be separate problems. A small fuel leak in the engine may be the source of the 2 scents. A coolant leak may be the source of the poor heat and burning smell. Get it checked out before you have a serious problem. Next time you run the car, shut it off, lift the hood and try to smell where the source of raw fuel is, or any rising smoke.
