Question

Answer
You'll want to check your fuel and fuel vapor lines.  Also, I've seen the fuel pressure regulators seep from time to time.

Is your check engine lamp on?  If so, check the trouble code.  Depending on the trouble code, this could be an indication that there is in issue in the fuel vapor management system.
