1998 Jeep Chereokee, 4cilinder
 

After driving more than a few miles or over 50 miles, upon exiting the
vehicle there is a noticible smell of burning rubber. Anyone have any
ideas what could be causing this? Help.....

Oil or ATF leaking that is spraying back onto the muffler or catalytic
converter which is cooking it off?

Does your 98 have the aluminum heat shield over the catalic converter
attached to the body? My 96 didn't but my 99 does. If not you may want to
get one. (not the shield on the converter it's self)

Power steering fluid spraying through the sensor onto something hot?

Always smells quite nasty when it's burning :(
