Fuel Smell??
2001 F150 Lariat - Fuel smell from the rear of truck, on the opposite side of the fuel tank? Gas tank straps were replaced, gas tank has no leaks on drive way. Could it be a rusted fuel line?

Thanks!

Is it coming from the exhaust? Like maybe a raw or unburnt fuel smell?

The muffler does have a hole and is loud. Could the smell be coming from that?
