Default New Civic Guy

Hi guys!

I'm Jon. I'm 23. I'm from Los Angeles.

So I just inherited a 1998 Civic EX coupe. I signed up so I can start to do some nifty things to it.

Great site!

(wave)

Welcome to HCF. Please forgive brajj for being such an asshat... he's taking a vacation for his childish behavior.

post some pics of the car, we would love to see it, even if it's stock

Hey thanks for the awesome welcome. Every forum has an idiot, its no biggie.

Well, I inherited this car. Its a 1998. Has 165K miles on it. The sparks, wires, cap and rotor, and new battery were placed on the car about 10K miles ago. I had then replace all the breaks, new about a few weeks ago.

Every time I turn off the car, it gets a burned smell. I have no idea what it is.

I'll take a few pics of the car as well. Its not in its best state. Maybe a 6 our of 10.

I also drive a 2009 Ford Edge. Getting this Civic back up to about 9 out of 10 would be a great goal. I very rarely drive the Edge and skateboarding every day to work is making my coworkers lift some eyebrows.

What could the smell be?

It could be any number of things. I recommend starting a thread in the tech section so we can get a larger number of members reading about the problem.
