Burning Smell from engine bay

Postby JDunny1 on Mon, 16 Jan 2017 7:10 +0000

I've got a burning smell in my 04 v6 ln167r. I thought oil leaking onto manifold etc but I have checked everything to no avail. Could this be from my intake being clogged and burning built up oil through there?
It's more significant after I have stopped driving
