How are you determining that it's running rich?

My guess is his bumper is soaked in carbon lol...

What ECU?
Chipped and tuned?
Are you running any type of add on like SAFC?
Did you pull your plugs to look or have a wideband?
Do you have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator or changed your injectors?

I replaced the plugs and put some sea foam in but still has the gas smell when I come to a stop. I did notice there is a hole in the exhaust pipe and a hole in the muffler would that cause the computer to make it run rich?
