OK, so I'm cheating and asking a car question on a tractor site, but this is the only place I know where I'll get a decent answer. I've got an '86 Honda Civic which I've had since new. Has about 270000 Km on it (170000 miles). Lately, it has been giving off a rather foul gassy smell odor. It's definitely gas, but a rather rotton gas smell that's hard to describe.

Can't see any fluid or wet spots, nor can I even seem to pinpoint any area where the smell is stronger. Somedays, it seems worse than others. I'm beginning to think I might have to park it outside this winter if it gets any worse (and up here you don't want to be parking it outside). The only good part is that I could keep one of my tractors inside. Anyways, any of you guys have any ideas where it might be coming from or where to look? Thanks.
