A couple of thoughts. You may be able to locate the source of the smell/leak by placing something under the car to spot the drips or just look at the carport/garage floor after running the car a while. The source might be the tank itself. You can inspect much of the tank from the back of the car without jacking it up. The fuel filter is easy to see beneith the car under the passanger side door. The link below will show you what it looks like. Replacement is not hard. Have a SAAB fuel filter and both sizes of metal washers on hand before you attempt it.
Good Luck
