I have had the same experience on 2 separate '99 Crown Victoria patrol cars. There is an odor that emulates into the passenger compartment that smells of some type of burning. It does not smell like oil on the exhaust manifolds, but more like a gasket or something getting hot. The odor is terrible and stays with you after you get out of the car. Any ideas?

Possibly the fan motor going out.
