Why my 4runner smoke smells so bad and I don't have the check engine?

Help....

 

It's vaping, obviously. Don't hate on it.

 

Welcome to the forum!

Can you elaborate on this smell you are encountering? Is it from the engine or interior. When hold/cold after sitting for extended times?

Help us with some additional information, Armando.

 

Welcome

 

welcome

 

When is it smoking?

 

Welcome.
More info on when it's smoking. Cold starts? When warm? White smoke? Just when it's stressed out? Does it smoke in the house or go outside?

 

Previous owners cut out the cats and running an O2 simulator?

 

Sulfur smell especially with hard acceleration and the rear window down is normal.

Edit: I’ve never experienced it before the 4Runner so it was a surprise but apparently not uncommon in cars in general. Something about the 4Runner exacerbates it.

 

What color is the smoke? Black, no pope. White, you got a pope.

 

Welcome from Wisconsin!

 

After it’s been ridden hard

 

If it’s white smoke, look for a new pope under the hood.

 

And put away wet? Maybe OP is smoking something.

 

not saying I didn't have those thoughts as well.

But I am wondering

 

Make sure you are not losing coolant, which can add a weird smell and smoke at times.
Unfortunately coolant in exhaust is a clue to big head gasket problems.
Any soot in tail pipe?

 

Apparently @4RUNNERO83 has no interest in any of our opinions. Way to start a worthless thread dude.

 

He posted at 5:27, signed off, hasn't been back since. Sounds like a forum troll lol.

It seems we have a rash of one-post wonders of late.
