Help, car goes rich, crankcase has a strong gas smell.

[Fernas]

Like the title says, the crankcase ventilation port has a STRONG fuel smell, i had to remove the BSH catch can and leave the ports open so that way car runs ok, otherwise, AFR goes down to 11`s, with the open ports it sits around 14, like normally would, the gas smell is really strong there, any ideas?

Bump.

i had the strong fuel smell problem about 3 months ago it was 10 times worst with the heat on turned out being the fuel regulator sensor.

Is that the one in the fuel rail? or the one on the side of the HPFP

I did say this before but I think your issue is your hpfp internal seal is leaking.

Got an HPFP loaner from a friend, he took it off his Audi S3 to go APR´s, so i guess it is the same pump, it should be in good shape, i´ll swap it later today.

Keep us updated, mines running really rich as well.

switched pumps, smell is still there, maybe not that strong, installed catch can back and AFR it is still in the 14's but trims are kind of wacked at times.
