Just what are the symptoms?

well, I smell something burning, occasionally,

it isn't oil burning, it isn't my cadalydics, it is an odd smell, it isn't my tires after I light them up either.

it is possible it might be a coolant leak, but there isn't any puddles,

my engine isn't smoking, the engine light isn't on, it still drives the same, just occasionally, if I am on the interstate, going over 70, I smell a hint of something, but it goes away, and I won't smell it for days, and then it comes back again.

it isn't a stong smell, remember, it is a hint.

I was kinda worried it was, but I know that there are more parts in a motor, not just "pistons"

mind the sarcasm,

thanks for your input.

After further review, it has been determined that it is pacers that attack the fans, and that would be on a old amc board.

Do you have your girl friend in the truck when you get the smell? Does it happen maybe once a month?
