I have a 2000 Dodge Stratus. Recently, the car has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it starts with no problem, and sometimes it takes longer to turn over and finally start. I also recently have started smelling what I think is gas odors. I've been looking for leaks and haven't spotted any. It's gotten worse over the last few days. I've had a couple people tell me that it could be something as simple as the fuel filter, which I'm changing in the next couple of days. Does anyone think that this could be the problem or is it something else?
I have checked the battery connections and I don't believe it's the starter because the car not starting right away, and the gas smell seemed to start at the same time. Any advice is always helpful!!! Cars stress me out, I'm getting a horse and buggy. Oh, and a snowmobile for the winter.
