Why does my car smell like gas when I turn it off?
If your engine is burning too much gas, it will increase the amount of gas fumes coming out of your exhaust. When there are more gas fumes coming out of your exhaust, it’s possible that these fumes will make their way into your ventilation system, which is why you would smell gas inside of your car.

Why does my Camrys oil pump keep leaking?
That’s a common leak on Camrys. If it’s leaking from the timing belt cover area, that’s most likely your issue. On rare occasions, like Tom suggested, the block will crack but that’s usually due to a broken motor mount. Here’s a video on the oil pump leak.
What causes spark plugs to leak on a Camry?
Probably the most common leak area on the four-cylinder Camry engine is the valve cover, often because the hold-down nuts (large retainers with washers on the spark plug tubes) have become loose. Since most of these cars get tuned only every 60,000 miles or more, tightening these retainers is a good idea any time the plug wires are removed.
Where does the oil come from in a Toyota Camry?
Engine needs to be power washed or otherwise cleaned so it can be determined where the oil is coming from. Could be coming from oil pan gasket, oil filter and adapter, oil pressure sender, oil pump, crank shaft seal, valve cover gasket, head gasket, cylinder head or block. Engine block, I would think, would be least likely, but possible.
