cars running rich.... Help!@

Even though A/F gauges arent the most accurate compared to wideband I still trust its judgement this time. Normally its right above or at stoich just going into the rich, but lately my car has been running real rich and i can definetly smell it. Does anyone know what could cause my car to run rich, I herd a missing or cracked or just leaking vac line could do it, I have an aftermarket BOV and Its not leaking so I dont think thats the prob, any help would be nice, thanks guys.

Ok well it could be a number of things. For starters your sensors. Its possible you have a sensor involved in the whole A/F ratio that is either disconnected or not working.
