Check your charcoal canister. That filters out the fumes from your tank and if it doesn't work, you could be getting fumes in. Running rich and having an exhaust leak can cause you that, also. Happened to me in my Supra when the sub-par downpipe gasket the previous owner installed sprung a leak. It stung so bad, I couldn't open my eyes for seconds at a time.
