I have infiniti i30. Smoke coming from dashboard and einshield areas. What is the problem?

What does the smoke smell like? If it smells like antifreeze, the heater core is most likely leaking. You would soon be running out of coolant in the radiator. If its electrical, melting wire insulation will burn your eyes and pain if you breathe much of it. Those are the possibilities you should investigate.

Propane turbo heater. After awhile why does it start to burn eyes and nose?

Hi Eric

It sounds like the heater is getting the air in the room so warm that it's making your eyes and nose hurt. That can be from dryness, from heat, or from combustion products.
Depending on the partucular model, you can try to:

Turn the set temperature down.
Turn the turbo fan to a lower setting.
Turn the feed valve from your propane tank to a slower feed. At some point, you should be able to throttle the amount of fuel burning in a period of time to where the heat is more bearable.
If you're smelling fuel, or overt burning petroleum smells, turn the unit off. This is a sign that things aren't burning right.

Last, but probably most important. If you are running a unit like this inside, make sure you have windows open. Please take me seriously here - installed propane furnaces have heat exchangers to pull in fresh air, heat it, and pass that air into your house. A propane heater burning inside your house is burning your inside oxygen and, depending on the flame quality, dumping Carbon Dioxide or, worse, Carbon Monoxide, into your house. You can end up dead pretty quickly, especially from Carbon Monoxide poisoning, and you'll likely be feeling fine right up to the time you pass out. These types of heaters are meant more for outside use, so please, if you absolutely feel you must run it inside, keep windows open and have a fan running. You're playing with your health

Good Luck!

What does it mean when there is a bad smell coming from AC/Heater while driving yet there is no smell under the hood? It doesn't smell like gasoline or mold but it smells like burning oil, maybe antif

Smell of coolant and smoking

smoke from exhaust could be cracked head or blown head gasket but normally when one of these two things happen it runs crappy if it runs at all smoke from under the hood you may have a pin hole in your radiator or hose or even heater core put some stop leak in it watch for puddle of anti-freeze under the hood and on the ground keep a close eye on your tempature gage and a close eye on you anti-freeze levels and dont add fluid when the motor is hot this will crack your heads good luck.

I have a Dyna-Glo heater, model #RMC-FA50A, heater will not get hot and there is a odar and eye burning smell after running a short time.

When this type of problem happens, you most likely need to take apart your heater and clean it well. If it still doesn't work after that, blow it out with an air compressor. If then it still isn't working, I suggest you sell that heater and buy a new one.

Cant turn the heating down

need to find out where the heater control valve is located (it normally is near the engine inside the hoses) and see if that is sticking and if you cannot free it up replace it

A really bad smell coming from the fridge

I had a similar problem with an unbearable smell, not inside, but outside the refregeration compartment. it was from the defrosted liquid that gets stored in a small open tank at the bottom on the rear side of the fridge. over time , particles settle along with water and gives a rooten smell, cleaning this tank solved it.

Hope this helps,

Cold weater start problem. Oil smoke in from the heater vent.

The same problem happened to me and it turned out to be my heater core.

Normally smoke will come from the heater core when it needs to be replaced.

Also the smell is most likely anti-freeze and and you normally smell it when your
engine is running warm or hot.

Check your coolant levels to be sure. and the hoses leading to your Heater Core

heater cores for that vehicle normally run $180 - $230 and you need to remove your
entire Instrument Panel (IP) (Dashboard) to replace it.

I hope this helps!

I have a Reddy Heater model RC165DT portable forced air heater that will run for approx. 20 minutes then shut down before reaching the set temperature. I would then completely turn down the thermostat or turn off the power switch for 30 seconds to reset the unit. When it restarts it will only run for a couple of minutes.
