Evaporative fuel system

My car smells much to gasoline by the mouth of the deposit (by where it fills), is normal? I have verified valve EGR and is well, could be that canister to filter it was obstructed? or some tube of which they go from canister to filter to the admission was obstructed? My excuses for me bad English.
Greetings to all

Sorry, I don't understand exactly what your problem is... Unfortunately I don't speak/write Spanish, even if I did, I'm sure it wouldn't be good.

There are two parts to the fuel evaporative system. One part works while the car idles, or has no engine load, the other part works while there is engine load (or driving).

When do you get the gas smell?

Can you smell gas while the car is idling and sniffing around the engine bay?

Depending on when and where you smell gas, it could be one of a few different problems.
