I smelled gas when I started the stang yesterday and I looked and the fuel reg was leaking! I know it has a couple of o rings and that might be the problem but what do you guys/girls think ? New o rings or new reg? Also will the reg leak if the vac line is not connected ?

If your mechanicaly inclined pull it apart and clean the gasket in it. Its basicaly the same design as a high end paintball regulator.
