If it stinks of old battery acid, fair chance the smell is coming from the battery. If your alternator regulator goes kaput, you can "boil" the battery and the gas smell seeps into the cabin. Been there, done that. First step is check the water levels in the battery, if low, that could be a possible cause.

Oh, and cheer up, it may never happen. Go outside and light up a big fattie.

Well matey ,, what you say makes sense , i guess ,, went and checked the battery and well i do not know whats high and whats low,, put it this way i could see the battey liquid and no eleaments were exposde.

Ive just had the radaitor replaced and fan and belts and stuff changed etc ,,, so its not cooling its eletrical cooling is that right.

i thinks ive phucked up on the gamble and its about to all go , bang.
