I have a 1996 SL-2, 1.9 L saturn with 145,000 miles, it is having trouble starting sometimes, but then sometimes it wont. It takes a good three or more seconds of turning it over to get it started, then the exhaust smells real thick like its been flooded, also it stalls sometimes and shuts off, im thinking it is maybe a sensor like a ECT but i cant find where it would be? any help?
