Re: burning smell on decel.


I get the same thing in my 69 square...I've noticed that my rear hatch seal
is deteriorated in a few places, and that maybe the small is coming from
there (at speed the exhaust gets caught in a vacuum at the rear of the
car).  It doesn't happen to my car when I have all the windows closed, so
that shows that its not coming directly from the exhaust (and being pumped
into the car)...it needs the vacuum caused by open windows to be sucked
into the car.  Maybe I'll replace my hatch seal to see if thats the
problem...also, when the PO replaced the stock muffler with a header system
he disconnected all the heater hoses...I'll try connecting those up again,
or blocking them all off to see if the exhaust is sneaking in there too.
