He's making a joke based on the title of the thread. My random guess might be your injectors are clogged if it smells like gas.

If it smells bad when you "Get on it real hard" then you should be smelling it before you "Get on it". :naughty: :roflsquared: :roflsquared: :roflsquared:

I cant smell anything when driving regular or when its idling and theres no fluid leaks so nothing burning on the outside... Ive never burnt up an 02 sensor or a cataltyic converter could that be it?

When you short and slow trip it around town sulpher can build up in the cats. A good WOT run or two cleans it out. If you slow down or stop right after you can smell it sometimes. Smells like rotten eggs.
