lol im not talking about money either . my truck at idle will freaking choke you to death smells like pure gas

what could be causing this ?

 

Hrm, i think i had something samilar but it wasn't as you describe but i guess gas/oil was leaking to my exhaust which gave a little scent of gas, i think they told me it was a valve or something, but yours could be much more serious maybe..?

 

Bad cold start injector or check you AFM flapper if it's stuck open...

 

i havnt checked nothing yet i need to right away tho i dont think its a major problem it dont smoke or run bad it just has an extremely rich smelling exhaust

 

run a code diagnosis. if there is an issue, it will pop up.

 

Is your engine light on?

 

well i would expect it to be the truck has nothing that a normal truck has lol

 

You could also have an injector(s) that aren't completely closing, dribbling extra fuel. The computer can adjust for it under acceleration/cruise, but not at idle.

 

pull your injectors and spray 'em with carb cleaner, also include spraying the cold start injector. give the VAFM a look.. sticky is a problem.

 

have you checked or changed your air filter lately.

 

well i started to try to fix it today and couldnt find the diagnostics port? and also is the gauge cluster on the same fuse as the turn signals and hazards because i dont have any power on my gauges or turns or hazards ?

 

The diagnostics port is under the hood on the passenger side i believe. Should be sticking straight up. Least on my 3vze it was. Not sure about the 22re.

I would check the MAF and O2 Sensor. A faulty O2 Sensor will make a truck or car run rich.

 

Yes they are on the same fuse.

 

I had the same prob out of my 22re, turns out it was the temp sensor for the cold start injector. Part stores wanted upwards of $88 for a new sensor. i just disconne ted the wiring for that injector. that solved that problem.
