rich exhaust smell, i have replaced these so far, point me in direction required?!?! 200

Hello opnce again,

I have had a rich smell to the exhaust even after start up procedures from day one of owning this car. These are items I have replaced to try to stop this condition:

Spark plugs/wires, cleaned T/B, flametrap and hoses, disty cap/rotor, thermostat(was siezed open) intake manifold gasket, injector seals, cleaned intake manifold. fuel filter/seals,

I get no codes from scanning system, i have a terrible exhaust system on there now, leaking all over (apparent from steam blowout all over on cold mornings HAHA) should i venture into testing the oxy sensor? Is there any items i have missed here from being a "Rookie" volvo owner? Thanks alot guys and gals, this car is the ****!

I really do love this thing more than the V70 AWD i had, of course not as many creature comforts, but damn I get to work on it, and even have room for the family.

Robert
