Okay guys my first question.

This 86 SVO did a lot of sitting so maybe that's the issue.

But anyway, every time I start it I'm getting an egg smell. The car has not CAT's on it so that rules out my first thought.

Anyone experienced anything like this ? Car seems to run real well other than that.

Thanks in advance.

Any idea how old the gas is? That would be my first guess.

Yeah probably pretty old. It was almost empty and I filled it up this morning. I'll see if it gets better as I drive it.

Thank you for the reply.

I'd be inclined to add some fuel system cleaner, Techron has decent reviews. I use, well...at times, Lucas Fuel treatment.
