Fuel smell...

Well, as the title says..."Fuel Smell". I am getting a strong gas smell from my engine bay. I have checked the lines, filter, rail, injectors, etc. I even used a *UV dye to try to find out what the hell is going on. The smell is present and no sign of a leak...

btw. this is on a 98 200sx SE-R.

Could be a leaky fuel tank, but that should'nt smell from the engine bay area.

Maybe the clamps on the fuel filter aren't tight enough. I had a little situation with that.
