exhaust smells very richtrox 01-03-2006, 12:33 PM When I pull up to a stop, I get a strong smell of very rich exhaust, almost Diesel smelling. The car runs fine otherwise. I assume a sensor is to blame but which one? Could it also be the PCV? I can hear it clicking back and forth but if it fails, do I start re-burning crank case oil vapors or is that it's purpose and now it's not? Need to figure it out cuz this thing is pungent. AzTumbleweed 01-03-2006, 04:25 PM Do you have any oil leaking that might be getting on the exhaust system somewhere? midwayfreak 01-04-2006, 07:22 AM Check for a fuel tank leak getting fuel on the exaust pipe, look carefully, it may only leak when brakeing. These things are famous for crakes in the PLASTIC tank. trox 01-04-2006, 08:46 AM Thanks, I'll check it this weekend. The smell seems to come and go. Yesterday my tank was nearly full and I had the smell, today I'm at 3/4 and I didn't notice it. It's a 93 by t he way. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
