What I found is there is a pipe manifold back around the back if it is a 7MGE it runs around the outside of the motor and at the back of the motor on the passenger side there is a nipple sticking out with a plug on it that thing begins to leak and sprays coolant down onto the exhaust manifold and it takes forever for the smell to go away. what you do is get some small radiator hose that is the right size and put it on there and plug the end of it with something my 87 someone already did this and pluged it with a spark plug. It looks like crap but works till you find somthing better.
