Faint whiff of gas fumes near and inside the truck
KOEO fuel pressure is around 45 psi, so I figure that's good. At this point I'm figuring it's the intake gaskets so I'm going to prep for that project over the Memorial Day weekend. (Just now getting back to this project because it is no longer a faint whiff of gas. It's now full on fumes in...- chilerancher

Married into a Yukon
In one of the pics you can see two of our Fords (2013 C-MAX, 1992 Bronco) in the driveway. The Bronco is black so a little hard to see.:)- chilerancher

Faint whiff of gas fumes near and inside the truck
Thanks, I'll poke around here for more details on troubleshooting and replacing the intake gaskets. Are there two, one for each side? How big a job is that?- chilerancher

In cool/cold weather (<50 degrees outside temp): At idle the long term fuel trims are pegged at 25. Under load they come down to 7 to 12. In warm weather the trims seem to behave better at idle as I recall.- chilerancher

Faint whiff of gas fumes near and inside the truck
No spots under the truck. Fuel filter connections are dry. MAY BE correlated to the climate control system? I notice it when the system is on Auto, then the smell goes away. I'll do more testing with this idea.- chilerancher

Faint whiff of gas fumes near and inside the truck
That is my primary complaint. I started noticing this a few months ago. Faint enough that I thought it was my imagination for a while. Now it's a pattern. Other observations (may or may not be correlated): City MPG dropped from close to 14 to the mid/upper 12's. I noticed this around the same...- chilerancher

Married into a Yukon
The wife brought her 2002 GMC Yukon XL to our marriage back in 2006. I'm a Ford guy, but this Yukon has been a real workhorse for us. Just passed 330,000 miles and still feels road-trip worthy, although a little creaky. The interior trim is wearing out faster than the mechanicals. I do most of...- chilerancher
