What might be causing this....

Vabeachmustang · March 30th, 2007, 06:18 PM

What exactly does an exhaust leak smell like?? After intalling the autolite HT0 plugs and subsequently doing a burnout for some of my friends I now smell something along the the lines of a electrical burn under the hood on the passenger side. It doesnt seem to stem from the headers cause the smell is more intense on the top half of the motor by the plugs themselves. I also now have some clicking sounds like valves clicking or whatever... Any ideas or should I take this thing somewhere to be looked at?

Thanks.
