[QUOTE="cobrajeff96, post: 1508177, member: 29141"] Probably the purge solenoid would be my guess. Fuel vapors need a way to escape so there's a line at the top of the tank going all the way to the engine bay where a solenoid periodically opens up that's connected directly to manifold vacuum where the excess fuel vapors get pulled in to be combusted. In between there's also a charcoal canister that further helps to absorb the smells in between purge cycles. [/QUOTE]
