Default Car running fumey

I pulled into a parking lot and backup and noticed that my car was fumey. I just had a CEL light come on about a few months ago. Can this be caused by gas since I had my filled up at a no name station?

TIA

Why don't you read the code for the CEL & find out?

random thoughts:
1. gas cap.....missing, bad seal, might trigger a CEL
2. bad gas....nope, not your issue.
3. I think i remember something about hoses coming loose from the gas tank overflow tank.
4. search "gas smell" here. pages of info.
