Maybe The vent off the tank. Check hose and vent fitting where it comes out. Trace amounts will give you that smell and usually a difficult problem for most. If its bad you got to track it down and you will if its bad. If not make sure your blower is blowing prior to start up. Its not going to get better so a clean bilge and motor and a simple process of alimination im confident you will find it. Good luck aloha

I had similar problem some months ago it turned out to be the pipe under wheel arch (corroded) where cap filler is.
my problem was solved by replacing pipe which is connected to rubber pipe fixed to tank and filler hose from filler cap.
tools neede llong large cross head screwdriver, small socket set ( 12 mm , 13mm , 14mm) 150 mm extension bar. to remove bracket bolts
possibly some new pipe clips as others may be corroded.
you will need to jack up car and remove wheel to gain access.
took me about 1 hr, somebody with competent DIY skills should be able to deal in couple of hrs
check with dealer as there are two different pipes on different models one is longer.
my one was the one with the piggybacked overflow pipe.
small hands are advantage

try "duct tape" the fittings and drain to seal those areas, refill and see if water is still leaking, if so it's your live-well is cracked somewhere, and can be repaired on the inside with fiberglass resin..... if not then most likely the fittings/pump/hoses/etc....yes its a pain .Champions don't have alot of room to access any of that...got a Ranger myself....hope this helps and see you on the water....GL

Disconnected all the circuits at the battery end. Reattached each circuit one at a time . I connected the hot lead first then used a fluke voltmeter on mil amp setting -used the red lead to the end of the load wire black negative end and the black fluke lead to the negative battery post -- registered the current draw and found the circuit that was draining battery then went to each device on the circuit in this case it was a bad bilge pump motor for some reason it was shorting out but not enought to blow the circuit fuse.

You have to check for spark with a spark tester.This is the best way to check for spark.Also checking the fuel is best done with a fuel pressure tester because then you know if your getting the right pressure.Just cause there is fuel coming out does not mean there is enough pressure.Same for resistance it won`t be the same under a load.Hope this helps.Good luck.

special tool (about $15 at any parts store). It pushes in around the fuel line to release a clip inside , then the fuel line just slides off. Sometimes takes some wiggling and jiggling.
