    Hi All...

    Just got back from a trip and went to start the car this morning after
    it sat for 4 days and nothing. Noticed a burning smell but looks like it
    happened while I was away.
    My question is, is there a known area or wire that would burn or a weak
    spot that might cause this? Fuses are fine. Car worked fine when I left and
    nobody touched it. It's a '97 with 191,000k on it.
    Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Please email me at

    Thanks.. Steve

    MAYBE you have the headgasket leak. It leaks oil on the drivers side
    of the head at the corner of the block at the back of the engine. It
    may be the oil burning off that you smell. I hope it is something
    else, and something not critical. GOOD LUCK
