I have had a situation which is back and getting worse.  Whenever I sit with
the engine idling, warm car, I am getting a strong burning oil smell.  No
smoke, no obvious leaks, I've looked, mechanics have looked, etc.  No
visible leak, vacuum hose behind the block replaced, the branching one, and
I thought it was fixed but now it's back.
Has any one experienced this?  Any ideas?  The car has 70K, runs well, oil
use is less than 2/3 quart in 2500 miles.
Next thing is that when I am sitting and I turn the wheel hard right, it
feels that at certain points I have no PS.  Never noticed this driving.  The
rack was replaced at 47K.  Any connection here?  Pentosin level is fine, no
obvious loss.

I look forward to any responses.
