95 4runner gas smell

[mindriddle]

My wifes 4runner suddenly developed a gas smell coming from, i believe, the pass side of the engine bay. Ive been reading posts here and a lot had mentioned the fuel dampener. Where is this piece located? If anyone has a picture of it that would be great! Thanks

Have you done the obvious and looked for a leak? Your truck is 12 years old and could have a deteriorated fuel line.

IIRC, the fuel damper was the 2003 recall, so it may not apply to your truck.
