Started run for 10 min with fresh gas went 200yards went to turn around stalled out and still has yet to start and put new plug wires on today still not starting and took oil filler cap off and smelled like gas could this be the plugs or the fuel filter clogged ????
If the oil cap smells like gas, one of the injectors may be flooding the cylinder and the crankcase. That would not be a filter problem.
Check the spark plugs to see if they are wet.
I have a mustang that got gas in the oil and it won't start

SOURCE: hard to start and smell gas
have 1994 4.3 cpi and the problem I had sounds same.
It was a leaky pressure line in pletium . easy fix $45.00 part $15.00 gasket.
the leak was caused from the fuel lines rubbing together in pletium.
take the vortec cover off ,then remove air regulator in middle and look inside . I turned on power to key and gas spray came from drivers side of pletium looking in hole.fuel line side. if gas spray on passanger side then gas regulator faulty. takes 5 min to check
After fixing truck runs runs great. no more gas smell in cab.
also you can smell oil for gas
