had the same problem with mine, stong smell of petrol when first got in it, but it wore off, leaking fuel tank, or breather pipe, best get it looked at asap, afterall where there are fumes, any saprk or cigarette butt could blow it, worst case scenario of course but stranger things have happened, it it turns out to be fuel tank can get them cheap from ebay, bout £50 new delivered.
