I have 1972 corvette that I recently purchased. Now that I am storing it in my garage there is a stron odor of oil and gas in the garage. Can you help me determine where that is coming from. The engine does not leak any oil.

Optional Information:
Pre-1980 Chevrolet corvette 350

Already Tried:
airing out my garage, changed the air filter and since it seemed to need oil every other gas tank, I added a can of engine restorer.

Is there an inexpensive way to get the built up residue, if that is causing the odor, removed?

You might try taking it out for a really good/hard run to help clean the exhaust out.Other than that none that I know of.

When I step on the brakes, the car pulls to the left. What causes this and what needs to be done to stop it from pulling to the left?
