Gas smell can only come from a gas leak, I would lift the hood to make sure the fuel injector bodies are not leaking which is common. I would remove the vacuum line from the fuel pressure regulator to see if fuel is present as well, if so the regulator is bad and needs replacement. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
