Whenever I get on the gas, I get a strong wiff of exhaust fumes. I looked for leaks, did not find any. Am I looking at a cracked intake manifold? Any info would be helpful.
 
perhaps a leak under the body?[/QUOTE]


I had my car up on a lift and I did not find any leaks. Could my header be it?
 
i have this problem slightly, what it is, is that my weather stripping for my hatch is missing the bottom quarter... so theres a gap by the exaust tips... doubt this is the case with you, but worth a look....
