It was smoking while it was idling. Was idling for about 1-2 minutes then heard the crackling then the smelled the well known burning wire smell.

Few days prior I could smell a hint of burning wire when I went for a 10 mile cruise. At that time I could not locate where the smell was coming from.

Last night was the first time I could visually see the smoke and feel the hot wires.

Thank you for your interest on my new issue. I will get under dash tomorrow morning to locate color of burnt wire.
