Default Fuel smell problem 97 500 sl

<P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">My 1997 has a fuel (gas) smell. The smell comes and goes while driving. The harderI drive the car thestronger it gets. I can only smell it when the top is down, or when the windows are open. If the top and windows are closed I smell nothing? If the car is parked then i can smell it inside the closed interior as well as in the trunk. It also seams to be a stronger smell on the drivers side while driving. What can this problem be?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o></SPAN></P>
