[sinner240]

Problem with my 89 its seems like when i speed up. i can smell the burn from the engine. i saw a little white smoke in the car.any suggestion?

[navysnail]

can you pinpoint were the smoke is coming from or even the general area

is it an exhaust smell or a burning smell like spilled oil on the exhaust manifold would do?

i saw the white smoke in the passenger room. its smell kinda like exhaust. after i smell that burn i stoppped the car pop up the hood. i didnt smell any burn in the engine room at all.

hmmmm, could be your exhaust , maby there is a little oil on it.

run the car again and see if you can make it hapen agian, and look at your exhaust and under the car if it happens and see if the smoke is comming from the outside or the inside.

a little oild wouldnt make white smoke. you have coolant dripping on something. or maybe some other kind of fluid.

its smell like oil burn too. what if its oil burn what the problem?

[navysnail]

look all down the exhaust pipe, see if theres a wire touching it or anything like that.

i think its the exhausti found the carbon build up at the clamp

[navysnail]

carbon buildup on clamp means there is an exhaust leak. you might need a new exhaust or just a repair
