Hi Peter;
Both suggestions given on the vent hose and dropping the tank are valid.
Without being there and knowing where you are smelling the gas it's hard to
give a (one task) fix for your car. With regards to fuel, I would check it
all. Rubber some where or the gas line itself could be allowing fumes to
leak from your system. But, if it smells like you say and it is even strong
standing by the car I would first check the filler tube, from the tank lid
to the tank. It offers the best access to the tank and you said you just
filled it. Then the Vent tube, then the line from the fuel tank to the
metal fuel line. Then check right behind the left front wheel well area
where the likelihood of catching a stone is most likely. Then to the fuel
pump filter and pump, then along the hose route to the carb and lastly the
Carb accelerator pump. Remember one of your 5 senses is going to lead you to
this problem not guesswork.
