Burning rubber smell on cold start up??
Posted: Fri Nov 23, 2007 3:02 pm
Any thoughts on my new challenge to keep the Beast from poisioning it occupants.
An awful rubber buring smell rushes into cabin on cold start up, fades to nothing when moving and reappears when stationary? Had major top end work last week following cracked head gasket and smell has appeared ever since. Thought it was just paint burninng off new head components but happens on cold start up.
Cam belt was replaced in build up, could it have slipped from running true and now be rubbing? Only other option might be heater fan?
Any ideas please?
