I smell fumes when travelling along at a fairly brisk pace with the sun roof open. It must just be the aerodynamics of the 3-door or something.
Do yourself another favour and check the condition of the fuel lines under the rear seat where they come in through the rear bulkhead from the fuel filter. Mine had started rubbing on the crossmember under the seat where they loop around to face across the car. The two lines are cable-tied together (fuel in as well as return to tank) at that point and have to sit snugly under the sharp edge of the cross member. I wouldn's assume that your pressurised line to the injection system is at fault - or you would have a hell of a lot of fuel in the cabin. Look a bit harder at the return line though.
Dunno - might help ! :)
