Re: burning smell on decel.


OOOH that Smell!!

Well I originally thought this was only  a problem on the 71 and up
cars with the rear vents but it does seem to be a squareback only problem.

You let off the gas on the highway and the car gets a puff of exaust inside
especially with the windows down.

I think its some sort of air flow quirk but am not sure exactly where it gets in.  I did notice the headliner on mine sorta sooty near the dome light and on the
opposite side so maybe its coming in there.  Its NOT a leaky exaust as my system
is rock tight but maybe eminating from the sealess rear crank opening??
Definately bears some real detective work.

 When your passing oil on decelleration it really bears new meaning to the
phrase  "Everybody hold their nose!  Im letting off the Gas!"
