After my motor warms up there is a strong burning rubber kind of smell that seems to come from the engine. I dont think its over heating but could this be a problem? I put alot of armoral on some of the vacume hoses. Could this smell be related to that?

Can someone plz list some things that I should check for? I also noticed that some coolant is dripping from my TB, is that normal? Maby this is whats making the smell?

mine does the same thing after I used armor all on my hoses and stuff.
I was worried it was the belt, but now that your ride does it too I know it is from, the armorall.

and the coolant leaking on your TB is from the coolant hoses going to your egr spacer. or your TB gasket is toast

Armor All has silicon in it and that is what you smell burning. So don't worry about that.

As far as the coolant, no that is not normal. Make sure your TB is torqued to specs and if so, make sure your gasket is not bad

Ok cool thx for input guys. The TB gasket is new so ill get the chiltons out and torque to correct specs. Its a very minor leak as it is. Thx again

also check your rear main seal. oil could be leaking on your exhaust making that smell. i have that same problem in my 92.

P.S.I.cho

your rear main could be leaking or tranny fluid too, hopefully u dont have a bad piston ring but then i think you would see smoke
