Gas smell, searched but located nothing

I searched the forum and found nothing. My 06 GT has a strong gas smell inside when running. Anything to check, is this a common problem or am I blessed with the only one?

An 06 Mustang GT? Have you done any mods at all?

other than a non functional hood scoop, nothing has been done. Have cai and tuner but gonna fix the gas smell first

Are you running a canned tuned via your tuner currently, or stock tune?

The fuel pump is under the rear seat, make sure its sealing well and not leaking. Just pop the levers under the seat and lift it out.

Yes, make sure the lock ring is sealing properly.

I had a fuel pump replaced by Ford under warrantly and the retards didn't secure the lock ring under all the tabs, and fuel leaked out at a steady pace.
