2004 gas Precedent weird smell like electrical and rubber!!

Love this forum! I was pulling the kids on sleds and got stuck in the snow. Had to push it out by hand while giving it gas. I have stock tires. I need atv tires and lift. Just bought it so mods are in the works. I smelled a weird smell so I took it home and started looking at the engine and belts. Everything looks good I took it out the day after and it was ok. Maybe the drive belt was heating up and I need a new one. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks.

I've got them stuck a few times in snow if it was deep enough usually the secondary clutch will get into the snow and get the belt wet and a wet belt will slip causing it to smell from the slippage until it dries off

Thank you that's what I thought!

I was working on my '06 Turf1 and found the starter cable & plastic cover zippytyed in such a way that it came in contact with the muffler.
Melted the plastic cover in a big way.
Cutting the tye was the only way to get it removed from the exhaust.
