Black_Bay Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 My wife called me the other day saying that her car smelled like natural gas. I asked if it was a rotten egg smell but she insisted it smelled like natural gas. BTW I know it's the additive that makes NG and LP smell. So yesterday I finally drive the car and sure enough it smells like natural gas or propane. I figured it was a bad cat but it doesn't smell like it. It gets worse at a stop or idling. I assume that's just because the smell is getting carried away. It's a 2007 Fusion with over 30,000 on it. Apparently the smell started about 2 weeks ago.
