Dear all, When I made a ride yesterday, there was something not normal. When I release the gas petal, I can ear small fuel explosion in the exaust (not everytime, but often). There is also a small smell of fuel. When I restart the engine, there are also small difficulties... Do you have an idea ? best regards from Luxembourg
Do you mean a rough idle? Leaking/sticky fuel injectors? When was the last time you used a fuel additive for keeping the injectors clean?
From your description, I would guess (???) that you have a vacuum leak at one of your intake boots. Check to see if the boots are seated correctly/straight. It may help to spray some shots of carburetor cleaner around the boots while the engine is at idle, to see if that has any unusual effect. Good luck!
No, idle is ok.... I never use additive at all. @Miltonian: what do you mean when you say 'intake boots' ?

That's what I'd call it. A leak due to this part's improper seating/positioning, or a crack, will allow un-metered air to enter the intake system. Inspect first and if no faults found then spray carb cleaner around them while the motor is running (as Miltonian suggested).
The boot between the maf and the intake yes. Pull it and flex it and check for cracks not just loose clamps for example. Sent from my LM-Q710(FGN) using FerrariChat.com mobile app
