Re: strong gas odor in my exhaust... ??? (90sicksgls)

Yes. You car is supposed to run rich on startup if it's been sitting a while. I help maintain idle until the car gets warmed up.
A car will run rich when (1) it gets too much fuel or (2) it doesn't get enough air. How is it idling? Have you checked your air filter?
