I've also experienced the problem goin up and down hills too - the needle swings wildly. It also takes a nose dive anytime I punch it (especially at the track), and then comes back up when I let off the throttle and settle at a crusing speed.
the smell of fuel is probably your evap canister or the solenoid going out.
