LOL hah, yeah clutch stank. Haha never heard it described as a "fart" though. To me it always smelled like really old dirty laundry... but you'd prolly have to be a bachealor not living at home to corollate that smell

Hmmm I've never burnt (nor eaten) an oyster. But something burning in your exhaust would smell, well, burnt. If something is boiling off, that's a differen't story.
You could also check to see that something didn't get stuck around your exhaust pipes, like a plastic bag or something similar.

i hope you don't take it to a dealer with a MBC on it, they will first pee themselves laughing at you, and then tell you to come back when you blow your motor.
GASLY SMELL!! we are captured all your base.

Now, I know you said "fart" and all... but does it have a sweet smell to it?
