I just got my car back from the shop b/c I had a new water pump, new timing belt, and a new front crankshaft mainseal raplaced.

I had smelled gas somtimes before, but now it is about everytime very strongly. Anyone know what it might be.

Maybe check
1.Evap.Canister
2.Fuel Filter(make sure fuel lines are not leaking to)
3.Fuel Injectors(o-rings might be leaking)
4.Faulty Fuel Pump
These are just my guesses

there was a recall on the fuel system on the 95 eclipse I believe...maybe you should check that out.
