Check you valve lash and see if your exhaust valve clearances tightened up. My car started running rough, would occasionally stall, and smelled extremely rich when starting up. I found all of my exhaust valves were tight and some had no clearances so fuel blew right through the valves during the compression strokes. Unfortunately, I discovered this too late and burnt some valves. After adjusting the valves the rich unbrunt smell of fuel was gone.
