Hello, it could be that there is a fuel control issue. This could be because of too much fuel being directed to the engine in error due to an emissions system concern or vacuum leak even. It could also be due to a fuel leak of some kind, causing abnormal odor. Inspection is necessary in either case. Too much fuel going through your engine can cause damage to your catalytic converter, so it's best to have a look to be sure.
