Folks,
my pearl Ms. Piggy has developed a stink. On cold acceleration it smells 
like exhaust. On hot acceleration it smells like aromatic hydrocarbons. 
In order to rule out my imagination aided by the exceptionally keen 
sense of smell I asked Stefan to drive it the other day and he confirmed 
my observations.
We are speculating that it must come from the exhaust tract somewhere 
between the head and the central resonator, otherwise the stench 
wouldn't have made it into the cabin through the open windows and/or 
HVAC. Does anyone have any pointers that will help me narroow down the 
search? Is there any way to test the exhaust sys similar to the one with 
the "toilet clean out with a tyre nipple" gizmo for the intake?
