Ignitor is slang for the Ignition Control Module in the distributor.

seem like it's your fuel cut off relay ,which is allocated inside the car on the driver side just above the fuse box. Its size of match box.

Fuel cutoff relay? Sounds like you mean the main relay, which he already replaced.

Not hard to check, just need the resistance specs for that model/year and a volt/ohm meter.

The secondary coil can short to ground under the high voltages it produces, while still measuring OK with a 'normal' meter.
So... If it fails the resistance check you KNOW it's bad. If it passes the resistance check, that doesn't REALLY prove it's good.

650Superjet hasnt posted for a month now...
A bad ignition switch would not produce the smell of gasoline. Sounds like lack of spark, which could be ignitor, coil, rotor, cap, etc...
