GT500 smell, exhaust spit
By Dan Cundiff - 10/14/2000 7:22:49 AM; IP 152.163.201.53
The only time I get a gas smell from my car is when you really floor it for a length of time. You smell gas as you back off. I do not get a gas smell from general driving. The carbs on my car are the original 2x4 Holleys.I believe that they have stock pieces.
Until I replaced the original transverse muffler, you smelled exhaust ...all the time. It was a repro and I think it had massive leaks.
I hope this helps. Is the back of the car littered with gas or black exhaust spit marks after a spirited drive? That may be another sign of overcarbing. ie raw fuel being dumped out the back.
Just my two cents.Good luck.
Dan
