Try going to autozone and have a diagnostic run on your car. If something is wrong with the car, they will give you a code. Look it up online and see what other people have to say about it.

Your car is running exceptionally rich, it most probably has damaged the catalytic converter having run so rich. Excess fuel burning in the catalytic converter smells bad, perhaps that's the exhaust smell. The yellow Check Engine Light should be on and will have stored codes indicating what is wrong. Let us know what the stored codes are.
