my car stinks of fumes all the time can even make my eyes water when in traffic got a trust 8omm straight through exsaust n no cat is this why or do u recon running rich does anyone elses car stink? has flooded twice after short starts too where it has been switched on n off 4 about 20 secs between stops so would that be due to running rich?

engine been rebuilt 600 miles ago and run it in for about 450 miles 50 miles earlyer than bloke said but just everything was good and got carried away could i of upset anything?

Get it mapped. You may also want to check for Exhaust leaks.

Mine runs rich and it will make your Eyes water if you stand at the Back of it on Idle but i can\'t smell exhaust fumes inside the car...

You may want to remove the Hose pipe its not that bad :)

Mine stinks the whole area out on start up and idling but seems OK in the car once you are moving.
