Thanks so much for the prompt reply!, there are no leaks around the fuel lines and the funny smell seems to be concentrated around the throttle-body, as it goes for the filter i never oiled it since it came pre-oiled (at least thats what the box said). Is it possible for the O2 sensor to be acting up even is the check engine light does not go on?
