started the e30 last night and smelled gas (worse than usual). Noticed i was leaving quite a trail as i backed out of the driveway. Gas was POURING out from under the engine compartment. Any thoughts as to where to look first and how  to correct this?????

 Fuel lines..... J/k I would check the lines that connect to your fuel filter. When was the last time the filter was changed?

 1995 540i
 1986 325eS R.I.P.
 1984 325e R.I.P.

 Check your gas lines, and the charcoal canister.

 do you have a 325e? if so a common spot for fuel to spew out is right at the connector for the intake manifold.Comment

 leaking gas can be extremely dangerous I suggest you replace all of your fuel lines, but it maybe just the cold start valve leaking.Comment
