She won't start outta no where

I parked the car FD Sat morning and nothing seemed wrong what-so-ever. This morning however I went out car turned over smelled gas in the exhaust but not even a hint of firing. Im thinking its the ignition. Both fuses on the jacobs pack are fine. I havent had much time to check anything else. Also when keys in ignition battery volts are at 11.8v and cranking over around 9.5v. The car also seems to turn over faster than normal. I dont know how in the hell a seal could break while sitting there. Any way let me know what you guys think.

Check the 120A Main Fuse located in the rectangular fuse box next to the Battery. If it's blown, your engine will turn/crank but not fire.

well I checked the ignition and have a spark and the smell of raw fuel out of the exhaust. I have also checked every fuse I can think of.

You may have flooded it if you only ran it for a minute or two before parking it. That's not an uncommon occurrence. If you did, search for threads on flooding and find out how to unflood.
