Just bought a 240sx and the car has a horrible gas smell in the cabin also at idle the motor misses (rocks left to right like it wants to die). When you drive the car it runs fairly well but it still has a slight miss. Sometimes when you crank the car it want start but if you just turn the ignition to the on position and let the car prime for 6sec it will fire up.

One more thing while driving the battery and brake light flicker on and off with the movement of the motor but the car doesn't turn off (I think it's a ground issue). Is there a chance that one thing could cause all of these problems.
