terrible smell
anyone else seem to be having worse car farts than normal lately?it seems like whenever i go to a station other than mobil or sunoco in either my vette or my truck it smells like the cat is working overtime...is it some new additive in the gas or is it just my vehicles being pigs?!?!?!

throw out old socks and sneakers
wash underwear
remove gym bag from trunk....
It's probably the cats....this winter I had 4 vehicles with the check engine light on. I thought it was crappy gas too. Each vehicle developed a different problem within 2 weeks. Coincidence. I asked my mechanic if he knew if te gas was a problem. He said I was just having a run of bad luck. He was right!

I have no cats, and I dont get a badsmell.
Off Topic but, Does anyone get a burning oil smell after they've just romped on it? I check my oil religiously and its still marking as full? Im on the stock PCV system (I think thats the problem)
