I have a 2000 Outback with automatic transmission. The car runs great
and the engine light never comes on. Sometimes, in the winter, I will
start the car and gas fumes will fill the cabin when the heater is on.
When the gas fumes are present, they really pour into the cabin at
every stop light too. The problem is really inconsistent. It seems to
happen more frequently when I make short trips. This could just be a
result of highway driving blowing away the fumes. I had it checked out
by the dealer, but they said they didn't find anything wrong. I had it
checked out by an independent mechanic, he said it sounded like a gas
leak, but could not find any leaks. Let me know if anybody else has
had this problem or if you have any ideas about what might be causing
the fumes. Thanks!
