Gas smell in cockpit (archive)

Anyone have the problem of gas fumes entering the interior of the car when sunroof or another window is open? When windows are shut, fumes are not a problem. I think having a window down creates some kind of backdraft into the cockpit. Any idea what might be causing this problem? Evidently, this has been occuring for previous 8 years and mechanics have not been able to figure out where it is coming from. Fumes are in the trunk as well, but odor is different... A little sweeter -- maybe the leveling oil that has been removed spilled out at one time?
