yeow get looking for that gas smell!   must be a carb leaking or fuel pump 
leaking somewhere.  not only dangerous fumes but a bomb on wheels. look for 
brown stains under the carbs and around the fuel pump and check every place gas 
moves  back there, carry a good extinguisher till you find it. check the rubber 
gas line between the body and the engine. also is it leaking/dripping oil? may 
be top cover loose(blower bearing housing) or pushrod tubes?  hope you get 
out of it safely and without much trouble.   regards tim colson (with gas heater 
working good now)
