so i just got my 914 from the mechanic after a fresh rebuild runs grrrreat. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)
but my wife says i stink after i drive it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
i was quite excited when i drove back into the garage, but all my wife could say was "you stink".
i would love to use it as a daily driver, but i can't walk into the office smelling like exhaust fumes everyday.

any idea how i might fix this problem?

thanks in advance.
