Sprayed out under hood to clean up any residual coolant that may have been lingering around but haven't driven her since. Winter has decided to arrive rather suddenly.
Hi Ric,
the smell comes from the residue of the coolant which was not properly wiped away and or from the mechanics hands when he touched parts whith he coolant dripping hands which heats up later when in use.
Don’t worry about it.
