If you're smelling burned exhaust fumes, there's not much you can do. But, it's a raw gasoline smell, then beside being offensive, it's extremely dangerous. Your insurance company would probably frown on the car being parked inside. And if there was a fire, would probably not cover the damage.
If the fuel pump has ever been replaced, it may be leaking at the top ring seal. But, in that case it would only leak when full. If it's leaking all the time, I would back it up ramps and have a good look with a high powered flashlight for leaks. The tank and most of the lines are plastic, so road debris could have damaged or cracked something underneath... Ron
