    6.0 fuel smell

    wait until it's dark, then go searching the engine compartment with a good flashlight. The daytime is the wrong time to search....Ambient light makes it hard to see...You should be able to see alot more...That's how I found my leak.....

    NO i put the cart before the horse there and got run over...I've gone back to the stock tune and will keep it that way until I can get gauges and install them.
