Probably the alternator but I'd check it to be sure first. Many auto parts stores will check you whole charging system for free so call around.
thanks.
Burned out headlight/bulb bmw 1991 325i 2dr
It's a bulb replacement. If it's anything similar to my Audi, there is a cover on the back of the headlight housing that you pop off. Then you can reach in, pull the wire connector off the bulb, and unclip a metal retainer over the bulb, and pull the bulb out. Installation of the new one is the reverse. Just be SURE not to touch the glass part of the bulb. Skin oils can cause a halogen bulb to burn very hot and burn out very quickly. If you do touch the glass, wipe it gently but thoroughly on a cotton cloth to clean it off before you install it.

Double lock doors
You can “double lock” your doors by turning your key all the way to the right from the drivers side door and all the way left from the passenger side door.
Steering wheel logo center piece replacement BMW
if you can find a replacement logo you can super glue it back on but they probably dont sell just the logo so youll have to replace it with a new airbag which will have the logo already on it. (just another way to get money from you is all).
Hi my bmw 316i 1600
run the fault codes
problems with running rich include:-
injectors not working properly
excessive fuel pressure
leaking injector seals
heated oxygen sensor failure ( they are located in the exhaust manifold /pipe before the cat converter and are used to read the exhaust gas composition and report to the ECM which adjusts the air/fuel mixture accordingly
ambient air /BARO sensor which report the air temp/pressure to again allow the ECM to set mixture
The strong fuel smell can be from fuel leaks , flooding --as stated with injectors or an EVAP system vent solenoid problem
The first 4 possibles would be the most obvious place to start especially with a fault code reading
