1993 Pontiac Bonneville heater

does your dash fog up? do you see steam at all? you could have a heater core that is starting to leak. feedback is greatly appreciated

no fog,no steam,judt burnt smell seems to be on the drivers side when i checked under the hood

well if your valve cover gasket is leaking oil. it would drip on the exhaust and the fumes could be picked up from the heater intake. this is a hard one to diagnose without really seeing the car. id look for signs of oil or antifreeze on the exhaust. if antifreeze is leaking it usually leaves a white trail from where it is leaking to the ground. check that out. check back with us.
