Running rich (smell rich)

Hi all fellow Pelicans,

My Porsche 928 S2 from 1985, is running pretty stable in IDLE and in general seems to run also fine when driving around.
But there’s a smell behind the car (coming from the exhaust) that it seems to be running rich. And if a friend is driving behind me in his car, he’ll typical when we stop and talk say “your car smell like an environmental hazard”. :-/
So it seems the problem is there also not only running in IDLE.

Does any one know of a “checklist” of stuff to walkthrough for finding root cause of such a problem?

I did already change spark plugs, ignition caps/rotors, air filter, engine oil, water pump, timing belt, coolant.

Thx in advance.

BR
Chris
