Ok, here is a scenario that I know the answer to now but was really surprised and thrown off by the weird symptoms. My 91 900 had been running really rough and there was a burning smell and some smoke coming from low on the engine near the firewall. Also a little white smoke was coming out of the tail pipe. It ran like crap.
Turned out it as just a short in one of the ignition wires, and with new Bougicords it was healed. So how could the burning smell and white smoke from the tailpipe have been caused by that? I thought it might be the head gasket or a turbo oil seal, but it was really a very minor thing.
I am posting to get reactions and as a help to others facing the same kind of thing. Thanks
