I'm also using castrol edge 0/40, also checked fuel levels today which were fine but stinks of fuel too...

If I had the cash I'd have gotten Autometer Cobalts I think they are called, same colours. No wukkas Ben. Mine stinks of fuel if it's 3/4 or more full and I give it herbs, no one's been able to figure it out. Worse in summer I think. But I'd be worried about cruising or idle fuel smell!
