  Are the gas caps vented? My garage seems to have the scent of gas in it. Everything seems tight. Is this normal?

  The gas caps are vented, but I would look carefully around the fuel pump and carburetor for signs of a leak. Also check the hose from the filler neck to the tank and the gas line from the tank to the firewall.

Many thanks. Several bolts on the carb were loose. Really appreciate that!
Thanks.

Peter
