fowl oil oder from jeep
 

After taking a short drive in our 94 wrangler it will always emit a
fowl oil oder. I have changed the trans pan seal ,which was leaking and
the filter . I thought that would correct the problem and it did for
awhile . Its driving my wife crazy because when we park it in the
garage ,it stinks up the whole house. I've looked underneath ,but can
find no leaking. Can anyone help please!

Oil from the previous leak may still be dripping on the exhaust system.

Have you considered your local coin car wash to clean the undercarriage?

What kind of odor? Rotten eggs is the sign of a cat going bad.
Sweet is antifreeze. Burning oil smells just like..er.. burned oil.

Did you run over something like a skunk?

In the past, on my '89 YJ, a leaky rear pinion
seal would cause a smell. Check the muffler and
tail pipes for residue.
