It's not self closing but its fire rated. It's about 3 years old... I don't think it's the door that's the problem. I think the exhaust goes past the garage and through the house somewhere. I barely smell it but my mom is way over sensitive. I just smell it in the garage if the doors (garage doors not entrance door) is open

Miles,
You might do a pressure balance(manometer) test on the house.
If the mechanicals are are exhausting/evacuating interior air, it could draw all sorts of fumes.
Diesel is one thing...
CO has no smell, but it will kill you.

On a lighter note.
It looks like a beautiful weekend down here in the toe.

Good morning guys.

Yes it looks like a great weekend Jim.
I need to work this morning and then do some things around the hose later.
Tomorrow I am renting a slit seeder t over seed my dads, sister in laws and my yard.
The weather just killed the lawns this year.
I wound up with chinch bugs in my yard.

Hebron fair sucks don't ever go.

Expensive unorganized labyrinth of fences with three dozen security **** to tell you where you can't ho but none to tell you how to get where you want to be. parking sucks.

Ended up jumping a fence in order to leave early. Everyone i knew who was pulling left early as well.

Every other fair is half the cost and twice as much fun.

I'd wait for them to come to the meadows but that's just me. Less BS, better parking, fewer inbreds, and you can actually buy beer and tailgate before the concert... For about the same cost.

Was there a car gathering here in town?
I saw a few Ferrari on the road today.

"almost" the toe...

It was a beautiful day for a drive!
What do you guys (that don't have carburetors) do???

There is nothing quite like the induction roar of two banks of three dual downdraft Weber's right behind your head.
