[QUOTE="birdmayon, post: 1101864, member: 13182"] diesel fuel smell or diesel exhaust smell? If exhaust, check the up pipe bellows for cracks like the other guys said. If fuel smell, check the cover on your fuel regulator (next to the fuel filter bowl), it is likely that the o ring is shot and has a minor leak. It may not even be enough to cause a drip, may just be slightly damp on the bottom, which is enough to stink up your whole truck at idle. Easy DIY fix. Or, if you're like me and you've had a fuel line blow off while the truck is running, you've got residual fuel in all of the nooks and crannies and your truck will forever smell like raw fuel.
