ok i got a 1994 ford probe se...2.0L dohc mazda motor... the valve cover was leakin like a motherf***** so i pulled the valve cover and replaced the gasket, then i changed the oil...now when i start the car it idles rough and it smells like fuel under the car...ive got a hole in the exhaust so im not sure if the fuel smell is coming from the exhaust or a line or something down there, but its strong, cant smell it from the engine bay...it didnt do this before but it does now...oh and if i give it gas, it backfires pretty bad...my only guess is that while doing the gasket i must have bumped a vacuum or fuel line and cracked it...sprayed wd40 all around while it was running and nothing happened so i dont think its a vacuum issue, and theres no fuel leak under the car, i have no f*****clue whats wrong....help me please!
oh if it matters, i tried replacing the idle air control valve, but the screw heads were stripped out.... so i didnt get it off, but the elctrical connector the clip on it broke but its still plugged in strong...doubt thats an issue since ive gone through that mess with my mustang and it didnt do this...i also had the airbox open to check the filter, it looks like its seated right now though...but that shouldnt matter anyways
help fuel issue..
