Hello I've been having a fuel issue with my 2005 be beetle. I'm smelling fuel inside the car. And once every few days I have a sudden loss of power on the freeway. It gets back up to speed after a few seconds but it's alarming. Check engine light came on. I changed fuel filter, fuel pump, evap valve purge. Symptoms are every morning I have to crank car twice to get it to start. The first time I turn the key it just cranks. 2nd time it always turns over. Once the car is warm, it starts fine the rest of the day. I have been leaving car on at gas station because if I turn it off and fuel up, it's very hard to start again. I think it needs a smoke test to find where it's leaking. I changed all these parts myself, but I could use some help. I can pay $50 if you can diagnose the issue. Can you bring portable smoke tester? Or I could bring car into your shop if you have one. Then more of course to repair. Hoping to get it fixed this weekend. Thank you
