More like if the car is running rich. Rich = raw fuel that's not burn inside combustion chamber leaving the engine. Sometime known as black smoke from tail pipe.
I would check your O2 sensor to make sure it is responding correctly or your engine is not having vacuum leak in return causing the ECU to enrichened the fuel mixture.

i know there are no vac leaks
and im sure the o2 is ok i dont have any codes being thrown.
and theres no smoke just a very strong oder of gas.
anything ells that might cause it suck as clogged injectors or somthing.
if i remember reading correctly if there clogged they can spray extra fuel is this true?

Are u smelling raw gasoline inside the passenger compartment even with windows closed. If so you might have a leaky injector. That will cause ur car to run rich and rotten egg smell from ur exhaust. Have that check out asap. Cuz u can get an engine bay fire. Ask me how I know. LOL.
