Hello,I just picked up a 1985 F150 with fuel injection.I,m getting a strong smell of gas from under the hood.If you are looking at the right side of the distributor there is a round unit about 1" diameter with a plug attached.At first I thought it was a injector but I'm not really sure.This unit appears to be weeping gas.I'm completely new to Ford trucks so I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at.Is it the EGR vale?Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks
