Last couple days I've been using my back tank which hasn't been used since the beginning of summer so I filled her up & added some seafoam. It seems ok but I always smell the strong scent of gas but no leaks to be found. Can anyone tell me how often I should switch tanks from front to back just to make sure they both are working properly?

my truck could probably use that haha, it might help abit...or alot haha, 95-96 thousand miles with no maintenance along the fuel system as far as I know haha.
