Hey was up guys just wanted to know of any common problems that would make my gst smell like gas when I'm driveing its not in the cab of the car but if I roll my window down I can smell it when driveing she is running a little rich too according to the air/fuel guade any idea where I should start
 
The smell is not in the cabin of the vehicle as you stated, correct? Does the smell get worse after fueling up? The gasket for the pumps sending unit is known to leak as stated above. I had that issue after installing my full blown dual pump hanger. The service info states lubing up the gasket with soapy water prior to tightening the lock ring eases seating everything properly. You could try lubing it and tightening it down.
Otherwise they do make a flourecent dye you can add to your fuel and use a blacklight flashlight to help spot leaks. The kits are cheap on Amazon.
Do you have your charcoal canister and EVAP equipment still?
