Hello group,


I'm trying to isolate this hot smell in my van and happens when I'm heavy on the throttle or when I'm slowly climbing a hill. When I look out the rear view mirror during the day I don't see any smoke but at night I can see haze in the headlights behind me.


Everything is stock with BB injectors going in a couple years ago and a new to me IP at the same time when I parked it. Now that the new batteries are in it starts and runs quieter (inside the van) than ever before.


I don't have a pyrometer yet so I cannot tell you the exhaust temps but the water gauge seldom goes above O in NORMAL.


The tail pipe has a hole in it at the bend behind the rear time if that is a symptom. The exhaust is stock and in good condition (except for the hole)according to the muffler shop.


Thoughts?

 

atf can leak on the cross over on the exhaust the pipe runs surprisingly cool until you put a load on it...
