Default Something stinks!

Folks I need some help. I have been both blessed AND cursed with a complete loss of sense of smell, (ie: things like my crap DON'T stink, matter of fact nobodies does!). Anyway, after cleaning up the 1210 for winter storage, (it'll trade places with a snowmobile up on the shelf in the garage THIS winter), my wife says she can smell a strong order of gas and I can find NO visible leaks. Is it possible for the fuel cap/gauge to fail internally and allow fumes to escape? It normally stays out back in the shed where she never goes, and since I can't smell anything, it therefore may have been like this for a long time. Gas consumption is normal as well to back up the "no fuel leak" but fuel smell problem. Thanks for any input.
