What owners wrote
Raw fuel is present and pools on the engine only when outside air temps go below freezing. Happens constantly. Many people on the referring internet site have reported the same problem. I have not been able to determine the proper fix.
Strong fuel smell inside of car. Inspected under hood and determined that the fuel smell was emanating from the right side of the engine.
