I have played with this car for 24 years; a friend owned it for 21 years and I bought it from him shortly before he died of malignant melanoma 3 years ago. My previous experience with the car was outside, not in a garage. I played with British cars for many years before I got into Corvettes so I am familiar with fumes. Since I only use a tank of gas every 2 weeks I have not tried switching brands yet. The car has been tuned to run on regular so that may be some of the problem. The stink hunt continues.

And is this your first carbed Ferrari? The reason I ask is since you car has an engine overhaul all the stuff i was talikng about is probably not the case. However the stinky smell could just be the normal operation of a 30 year old carbed car. After a drive do you find black deposits on your rear bumper? Doug thinks lean but lean cars usually burn up the fuel. I am guessing since the cats are removed aand no air pumps you are running rich like my car which would give you many smells to complain about or love. My wife likes the Ferrari but sometimes after stop and go traffic she is mad cause her hair smells like exhaust.... I think the car is fine, we are just used to modern fuel efficient and clean burning cars! Rob ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
