camaro z28 1996

[napoli101]

just bought a 1996 camar z28, i have straight through exhaust system from the manifolds,and performance air intake, thing is that i can really smell the exhaust fumes on my clothes just by going round the back of the car a few times while ticking over in my drive, is this running rich or what is rich meant to smell like? petrol maybe? this is more like a dry exhaust smell if that makes any sense

thanks people, may just take it to Andy on Goldhawk Rd A C automotive, pics will follow

Hi people, well the car has a misfire , real lumpy under load and only when it has warmed up, this would upset the balance i suppose and give me a worse smell than usual coming from the back, i really hope its not the optispark, ive not had the car long didnt notice when i took it for a test drive but since then it has got alittle worse and the engine light will only now flash for a few seconds then go off and may not see it again until many miles of driving, plugs changed 18 months ago and hope ALL were changed!!
