Sulfer smell after short movement.

[MikeN]

Noticing a sulfur smell after driving a few feet. Roughly 1/2 hour drive to work. Turn the truck off in front of the overhead door. Open the overhead door and drive the truck in roughly 20 feet. Turn it off and it stinks. Only with the short movement. I can drive it for an hour and park it with no smell.
Smells like catalytic converter.
Running 91-93 shell if that makes any difference.

You know... do they smell?

Smells pretty normal…

Haha. Yeah. If you floor it, you will get a sulfer smell from them. If it smells like sulfer all the time, means they are going bad.

I must not floor it. I've never smelled it.

It’s the quality of gas your using.

So just a downside of premium?

When I worked for Toyota I always noticed that Toyota cats always stink with the cheaper gas. But if your yawing premium then maybe try another brand. Of gas.

Weird. Shell premium is usually pretty good around here. I'll definitely try something else out though. Thanks for the info.

Your right shell is good. When you smelt the sulfur smell when you playing with the truck? Hard
Accelerating?

Not yet. Still breaking it in. Only smell it when moving it short distances. Like moving it into the shop once I get to work.
I can drive it for a while and get out and smell nothing. But once I start it up again and drive it like 20ish feet and shut it off I smell it.
