weird starting problem V70-XC70 1998

Has all the scheduled maintenance been done on your car?

When I started driving, 24,000 miles was enough for 4 sets of plugs.

The gas smell could forecast a catalytic converter failure or worse yet, a fire hazard.

I'd take the car to my dealer.

I've read quite a few posts that describe a lot of parts swapping to try to fix a problem that could be repaired with an hour's labor by a good technician with the proper equipment.
