What could casue rough idle shuddering loss of power and smell of gas in a 93 camaro only happens after the car has been running for a few minutes?
have your injectors checked out, it could also be fowled spark plug. --- If the engine stops with a smell of fuel then its likely you have a fuel line leak. What is happening is that the injector has a small reservoir of fuel in it and this starts the engine. Then the fuel pump kicks in as this is used and pumps a bubble of air from the leak up into the injector which stops the engine. The engine stops and any fuel left above the leak falls back down the fuel lead and leaks out the hole which causes the smell of petrol. ---

Chevy Silverado antifreeze leak behind motor?
It is common for the intake to leak engine coolant out of the front and rear corners. You need to check the corners of the intake REAL CLOSE for leaks FIRST, because it will run down the back of the engine and look like it's coming from the transmission bellhousing. If you don't find a intake leak then 1 out of the 2 freeze plugs that's in the back of the engine between the engine and the transmission is leaking. You did not say what year it was, but some of them have a heater hose that connect to a fitting in the rear of the intake can leak too, And run down the back of the engine.
