I don't want to alarm you Cyndi, but there have been a few instaces where the batteries in the eurovan's have failed, either boiling themselves dry, or in one case I read on this list. It exploded! If this were my van, I'd check the water level in the battery to make sure the Sulfur smell was or was not coming from that source. I read this post and Trashed it, after a second I remembered the Exploding battery and had to write something about it.
