Strange question

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: chris

When I get done with a WOT run, regardless of starting speed or ending speed (IE 0-60 or 40-70 etc) I get this terrible smell inside the car. It smells like sewage...I can only think that it may be coming from the tranny, but even that seems odd to me. In normal everyday commuting all is well. Any ideas?? I'm stumped.

does it smell like rotten eggs? if it does it's the cats getting hot. mine does it too.

Change the O2 sensors.

Mine does it as well. I've always heard it's indicative of a cat on it's way out. But my O2s are probably 82k old, so...

Ohhhhhhhhhh OK way better than a tranny. I'm actually glad to hear that!! Thank you all.

Oh and JC, it smelss like 37 pounds of melted ass.
