Hey dudes,
Had my excel parked in the garage for the past 2 days (been driving around gf's car). I never started the excel in the 2days and it just basically sat in the same spot. After turning the car on i realised it smelt like petrol and was a tad smokey but went away after the car idled for about 1-2mins. What could this be from????

LOL 
oh and as for the petrol smell... cars use petrol.. there's either a leak, or it was a little rick on startup..
find where the smell was coming from and that solves part of the problm...

ummm probably tuning or something, like that, while its warming up it probably throwing too much fuel thru the engine and its just getting burnt off thru the exhaust!!! it might be whats wrong with out magna but i don't remember what we said that was, i will usually except what wrong with it is the fact its a 2.6 4cyln magna!!!

you need new valve stems seals and you got a fuel leakage somewhere. buy a new car.
