Petrol or gasoline fumes or another type? A small coolant leak can create a strong odour, usually a spicy smell.
A cooking battery smells rather acidic.
Vauxhall/Opel fuel lines aren't the greatest and sometimes develop a small leak and this also applies to the fuel tank breather hoses - but these are possible problems only when regular maintenance isn't thoroughly carried out.
SOURCE: WHEN IDLEING VEHICLE MISFIRES AND
The tok tok sound is probably a blown exhaust gasket. Replace the exhaust manifold gasket. As for the rough idle , replace the distributor cap, cap rotor, spark plugs and wires. With any luck this will take care of the misfire at idle and improve your gas mileage for a minimal cost for the repair.
No idea offhand to be honest i would need my head under the bonnet to know what wrong .could be anything from the gauze filter in the fuel tank on the bottom of the fuel pump becoming chocked up and leaving the car allows it to drop away to a faulty pump overheating or the contacts ,maybe even a ignition module overheating ,Best advice is ask a local mechanic to have a look for you as normally these early opel corsas with the 4 cylinder engine are bullet proof they are even valve free if the timing belt snaps .
Sounds like you not getting enough fuel. Try replacing you fuel filter which sits under neath the rear near the tank. Just follow the line from the tank and you'll see it or it can be a faulty fuel pump You should get 3 bars pressure from it.
Try a mechanic immediately because this problem can cause severe damages.
