Some may be the spirt, some may be insticnt. It hink we are hard wired to perceive certain sensory input as indicative of elevated risk. One might suppose God created us this way (as I do) but leaving faith out of it, I thihnk this sort of sense of danger is somethign that we come equipped with whether or nto we are seeking the spriit, whether or not we are feeling like we need the spirit and whether or not we are living the gospel.
That being said, I also believe that some persons in some circumstances recieve more specific urges and psiritual promptings that tranascend our normal reactions, but that could only be decided subjectively on a case by case basis.

Most of your posts confirm to me that drunk people can feel the spirit.
