Under the hood near the compliance plate on the passenger side,there will be a plastic thing with wires and a hose on it which go's down to the manifold,this hose might be cracked or not pushed on properly. Or it might be the oxygen sensor just down from the exhaust manifold,before the catilac converter(this may be faulty or something)

What causes gas fumes in Saturn 2001 L-Series?

Is it gas fumes or exhaust? The only cause for a fuel smell inside the vehicle would be a fuel leak, so check the lines, tank, etc. for that. While you're underneath, check the exhaust. Sometimes exhaust can have a similar odor to fuel, so check for exhaust leaks under the vehicle and also check your rear door seals and trunk seals for damage or poor seal. Sometimes exhaust can be sucked in through poor seals. If you are unwilling or unable to get under the vehicle to check for exhaust and/or fuel leaks, take the vehicle to a shop and explain your concerns and ask that it be inspected. Breathing either fuel vapors or exhaust can have serious health and safety risks, so be proactive, do something about it before bad things happen.

What is an EGR valve what does it do?

it is a emission device exhaust gas recirculation , it take exhaust gasses and by control of the cars pcm or computer and a egr valve it introduces a calibrated amount of exhaust back into the engines air fuel mixture.exhaust being mostly a inert gas will lower combustion chamber temperatures for a more efficient burn that will lower nitrous oxide emissions. its also re-burns left over hydro carbons that do not get burned in the combustion process

How do you remove the emission control on 1998 Mazda millenia?

do not remove the emission control. you need that for fuel economy and does NOT effect performance. at wide open throttle the emissions control - o2 sensors, are not used it goes into open loop and the egr is closed. catalytic converters do not restrict the exhaust.

Will the egr valve cause no fuel pressure on 98 sable?

No. The EGR valve (Exhaust Gas Recirculating) is part of the vehicle emission control system. It uses vacuum to open during engine deceleration allowing rich/unburnt exhaust gases to be recirculated back into the combustion cycle. Lack of fuel pressure is most likely caused by an inoperative/faulty fuel pump or plugged fuel filter. The pump is inside the fuel tank. The fuel filter is under the car near the fuel tank on the right hand side.


What is the exhaust gas composition of internal combustion engines?
