What's that putrid smell in my Prostar?

    Love it, Ironpony!
    This smell, and I've noticed it in five, yes five (don't ask) different Prostars I've driven this year. Doesn't happen every day but a few times each week. Definitely coming from the engine and if this truck used DEF I'd say it could be related to that? It's a smell akin to exhaust actually, but different enough to distinguish that it isn't exhaust fumes, just similar.
    I swear though it's more like I ran over a skunk.

    The occasional time I do a parked regent, there's an unpleasant odor...

    Maybe that DPF is made out of dead skunk parts!
     
    Skydivedavec Thanks this.
