That gas smell... any suggestions?

charcoal canister? where might I find one? I might need to check into that... I'll have to check my plugs when it's daylight

You could take one off an old mopar in the junk yard,or get a STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS Part # CP3167 from rockauto.com

Adding a charcoal canister to your car will not be cheap or easy,but will cut down on gas smell and save you money in fuel. You would have to buy the can,add a return line and vent line to your tank,and plumb it all in.
