My car has a gas smell from the exhaust? What would cause this and what should I do? It has 85,000 miles on the car. Thanks, Jason D

your car is not using all of the gas in the combustion chamber. somehow, the gasoline is leaving the combustion chamber through the exhaust ports. this could be because of bad fuel injector(s) spraying too much fuel in the chamber or because of a fuel filter/pump problem.

have you noticed any difference in performance? any liquid dripping from the exhaust (other than water?)?

The funny thing is that it sat all night and day. Perforance is the same and nothing dripping at all. Anything else? Thanks, Jason D.
