This is probably not it, but I hope you don't have a fuel leak at your fuel filter and it is drawing in fumes or something. Sorry for the stupid idea, but it popped into my head so I'm gonna say it. :P

I would guess that you have a leak in the engine bay. Same thing happened on my olds. Just had to seal the bitch up and it was cured. I did get a little light headed on long trips though. :P

Just a guess, maybe you're mis-diagnosing the smell, and you're heater core is leaking?

Sounds like you have an exhaust leak up front.
