In the case of my '93 Aero, I had the same symptoms develop in '05. Turned out that the fuel lines were both cracked. One line leaking in the engine compartment, the other down by the fuel filter. Replacing those lines was expensive, but it cured the problem. Had that work done by my indie mechanic (it involves dropping the fuel tank).
Hope yours is simply the evap cannister hose -- that seems to be the more common cause of fuel odors.
Cheers!

SOLD '93 Aero 5 spd. All redone, but never finished (in the good hands of its new owner)
