'02 S60 Tough to Start When Cold and Nasty Fuel Odor
 

Hey all.
I have a 2002 S60, just rolled over 130,000 miles.
As of late, my car has started to stink of gasoline everytime I get in it. In addition, when I haven't been driving it and the engine is cold, it turns over 8 times or so before it starts. It always turned over maybe 3 times tops before starting. My indie mechanic (he is very good) couldn't diagnose the source of the smell.
Has anyone had this problem? If so, was it a costly fix?

Thanks!
