The water is leaving somewhere, either leaking out, going into the oil, or going into the exhaust. I would add a bottle of Bar's Stop Leak first. Usually if you smell the antifreeze it indicates a pretty good sized leak. I have had very good results with Bar's.
Check the carpet in the front by the firewall, between the drivers and passengers side. When the heater core leaks you usually get a wet carpet. This would be a fairly inexpensive repair relative to you other options.
You may have an issue with either dry rot of the rubber hoses or possibly a varmit got under the hood and chewed holes in hoses or wiring (happens all the time to vehicles stored for long periods of time).-Your fuel injection hoses up top pressurize to over 40 psi, so they need to be in good condition. If you are leaking fuel, do not drive it until you replace the leaking hoses, and driving an aluminum engine that is low or out of coolant is pretty much asking for disaster-better to get it towed and repaired.
you might have a leak in the rear suspension load leveler. check connections with soapy water. locate where sound is coming from. fuel pump in tank is a slight hum and not that noticable, but the air comp for load leveler is. Also spray around rubber boots on shocks, also check load leveler switch on axle to frame for broken or loose lever control.
if no leaks in lines, a bad or leaking fuel regulator can cause hard starting, poor fuel economy, stalling, check engine light, gas smell from under hood.
look for leaks!! if the line you reconnected isnt leaking then you are just smelling the gas that leaked out while you did the reconnection. there should be nothing to worry about then. if it has been a few days and you still smell it then look for leaks in other places.
