well if it had a leak it would make the same fuel smell, as the pump pressurises the system constantly at the same pressure, so i would say that ure engine isnt burning of your fuel as much as it shud be if it smells worst under throttle

trial and error, i would go with a good service, spark plugs, leads, diz cap, to get a good strong spark, it could also be the timing is out but u would notice that i shud think
