With the hood open it doesn't really smell but I can smell it in the garage after I park the car. Car is going to the shop in the spring to get its last trip and lots of money worth of stuff done but maybe I need to take it earlier.
I would bet your clutch needs to be adjusted. Burnt clutch, to me, always smells like canned tuna mixed with a chemical sort of smell. Hard to explain but very specific in smells.
