Burning smell?

Burning smell?
I thought i could smell burning clutch all the time when i would come to a stop while normal driving. I just replaced the clutch and i still get the same smell. Also though my power steering pump is leaking i think. It shoots some fluid over the engine bay. Do you think that the burnt power steering fluid could smell sort of like burnt clutch? When i open the hood to try and smell it, i can't. So thats why i'm thinking it may be the clutch. When i took my old slp clutch out that i thought was all burnt up. It was almost in perfect condition. If it was my clutch and i drove it for 3 weeks with this smell it should of been very noticable when i looked at the clutch right?

Check your A.I.R. injection hoses. If a on-way valve is shot, it will allow exhaust into the rubber hoses and cause them to burn/melt.
This happened to me, and I too thought it was clutch/brake smell ... turned out to be the rubber hose.

I will check the air hose today. As well with the driveshaft. I don't think it is my brakes because the only ones i replaced were the back brakes and the smell seems to be comeing from the front. Thanks for the replies. Anybody else?
