Unhappy Oh no, what is this smell coming from the car?

Well last night I pulled in my garage and notice awful smell of burning rubber coming from my car and I notice it again when I got to work this morning. Ok now what can cause that? Also I noticed some small amounts of metal shavings on the dipstick when checking the oil level, I hope that new engine hurrys up and gets here.

Metal shavings in your oil is definately not a good thing, what motor are you swapping in?

Ahh ok, no worries then. How many miles were on it before you started having problems?
