Default bad smelling...

Ok I know it's a strange question but anyway...... h23 vtec , when I floor it on highway let's say from 130 to 170 on 5th . takes maybe 8-10 sec, then the car smell (%*/?"$) bad. doesn't smell prestone or oil it's kind of a burn't smelling but not oil..few seconds later odor goes away...could it be ...too rich or lean?? engine doesn't burn oil, no smoke comming out behind at all!! thanks,.,.

I dont think so. Exaust is brand new and in good condition.. could it be oil vapor comming out from pcv valve???cause when I unplug it and give a little throttle, a light smoke is comming out from it.

Maybe it's a sign that you're speeding like an idiot on the highway and you're car's telling you to slow the hell down?

Or maybe it's telling you to go faster, that way whoever/whatever you hit will kill you on impact and save the world from you reproducing in the future.

hey impulsive, i'm not asking you how I must drive! I'm just telling u guys an exemple when my problem occurs. That does't mean I'm driving constently at these speeds on highway. Dumass who speeds in local areas are stupid but I think that, on highway, when there's nobody on road, it's not really dangerous... and .......i'm talking about km/h not mi/h!!!! for those IMPULSIVE people!!! Thanks to all others who are trying to help instead of giving life lessons!!!
