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!

Re: fowl oil oder from jeep
 

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.

Stick or automatic? Motor oil smells, but gear lube can unclog your
sinuses.

Re: fowl oil oder from jeep
 

Most commonly it's the valve cover, leaking enough to burn on the
exhaust manifold. The smell is God's little way of telling you are about
to catch fire and burn to death.

Re: fowl oil oder from jeep
 

not just the exhaust manifold, a bad valve cover gasket will get you
oil running down the back of the engine and onto the exhaust pipe
below. I had to steam clean my engine compartment and undercarriage
after my rear main seal went bad.

Re: fowl oil oder from jeep
 

Could be some drizzled down the side of the block last time it was filled
with oil and is burning off.

I second the suggestion of taking it to the car wash and giving it an all
over scrubbing, under the hood and the under belly.

Me too <G>, just couldn't do it before there were some serious answers.

Another thought, maybe the OP ran over a chicken!
