I have a '90 s10 blazer with 37,000 miles and replaced engine (4.3)v6, well i'm stumped. i thought the smell was coming from the belt moving over a frozen pulley but all the pulleys are spinning freely. i recognize the smell from when my alt. went out, the pulley froze and i noticed the smell and, my batt. gauge went to zero. this time everything appears normal, starts and runs fine. there's just a strong odor of burning brakes? but the brakes are cold and i know thats not the prob. cause it happens in the morning durring first start of the day warmup and idle.
i live in northern alaska where the temp can get to -30 below with -100 wind chill. but that has'nt been a problem. everything works but this smell just started happening today and it's horrible. i'm stuck using my snowmachine everywhere and its too cold for that.
