it's woth adding tag "american" (gas)
(british - petrol)
This sentence is fine in British English too if we're not talking about petrol
I wonder if Americans would actually use this to mean "gasoline."
I don't think I would.
I would use this one.
[#10179566] I smell gasoline. (AlanF_US) *audio*
However, if I heard someone say this in a situation where it was obviously gasoline that was being smelled, I'd understand it to mean gasoline.
