been 4000 km since oil change. could that be it? chain is regularly lubed along with other things like keeping oil topped up.
what could it be?
what could it be?
I hit a patch of fresh pothole patch the other day that tossed a couple of very small (grain of sand) sized pieces up and they settled right where the headers join together. Smelled so bad I thought I had an electrical short. Check where the headers make their first bend toward the rear under the front of the engine. I had to use a sewing needle (after the engine cooled) to get the crap out....smell went right away. Could be you've picked up something similar.
This is too easy. I think I know what you're smelling....
