bigdman Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 whenever i accellerate hard i can smell burning wd-40 ( thats what it smells like) but im not sure what it really is. could it be my new exhaust burning oil off of the pipes, or exhaust leaks ( i do have a couple leaks under the trunk) anyway the car is a 89 cutlass supreme sl w/ 3.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19902drlumina Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 any fluid leaks look around. what ure saying it smells like to me reminds me of burning tranny fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdman Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 i found the problem. thanks for all your input though. you will probably laugh, but i found a ghetto exhaust patch for small leaks (temporary) steel wool and a hose clamp. now i know steel wool can ignite but where i use it i dont think it gets hot enough, since i can touch the pipe after a good drive and not get burnt. well while i was searching my garage for steel wool i accidentally grabbed a brillo pad :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: i was in such a hurry to patch that leak i didnt even check to see what i had. well it patched the leak but under heavy accellaration exhaust was forced around the pad and somehow got in my car. i felt like a ratard when i got under my car and found a brillo pad but thats what it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
