So I've searched the boards for this problem with my 1987 240 automatic wagon, and although I've found several similar, nothing exactly like mine.

Drove about 20 mile today to do some Christmas shopping and noticed a hot burning rubber smell, accompanied by a noise (sounded like a humming). When I slowed down and came to a stop, I noticed the noise went away. I'm pretty sure the smell is burning rubber and not electrical. I checked under the hood, and didn't notice anything looking broken. I'm not exactly a car kind of gal, but I'm pretty mechanical, and could figure it out if explained to me what is wrong.

Has anyone had this type of problem before? I don't really want to have to take it to the shop (I'm finacially embarrassed at the moment), so I would appreciate any help!!
