I don't know dude... I believe I'm pretty civilized and I can attest to spilling a beer or two inside a vehicle. It doesn't have to be moving to have spillage.
I read some things about people having to have their AC evaporators replaced and it was a big hairy deal to get to it and they were not draining the condensent properly. Hopefully that is not the case but might be worth checking out.
Why is it so wrong to just drink and drive if you only have one beer in the car? I think it's safer then looking for Pokémon, texting or talking on the phone or having your wife in the car. :lol::devil:
You need to move to new Orleans....the home if the drive through daiquiri stands....just don't stick in the straw as the driver!! Or maybe Michigan...home of the drive through liquor store if I remember right.... Then again....we put liquor stores in rest areas in NH at the stare line and other strategic locations so the state can make big $$$. Oh yeah...we had the first state run lottery too. Hey...sin taxes keep NH "Live free or die"...and keeps us free of BOTH SALES TAXES AND INCOME TAXES. More to the point...how many folks say "just one more" then have 5 or 6?!
Whatever you do don't use that chlorine gas option.... You will mess up all of your electrical contacts everywhere inside the cabin... Big time....
@metalman -- yow that looks bad! Yeah, I decided chlorine gas is not the way to go. If I do anything like that it will be getting an Ozone treatment at a detailers. Thanks! -Dan
I think I found the culprit! I nosed around a bit (literally) and decided the smell was coming from the trunk. (When I inspected the car there was water under the tool tray in the trunk, I should have know that was the culprit). So I took out the tool tray and yes, it did smell like mold. So did all the tools, the metal under the tray, and especially the rubber hole grommits. So I took everything out and washed them with a soap/Hydrogen peroxide mixture (Blue Dawn and H2O2) that I read was supposed to kill mold. Now everything smells better EXCEPT for the trunk floor. That carpeted slab of whatever that pulls out to get to the tray. I scrubbed it and tried all sorts of things, but once it got wet it started to stink to high heaven, and even after washing and drying it still stinks! So I'm betting that is the culpret. I'm gonna leave it out of the car for a few days to see if the smell stays gone, and if so I'll just buy a new trunk floor -- only $43 at ECS and free shipping! That would be an easy solution. Yay! -Dan
Condensate will eventually lead to mildew, which is a very easy to identify smell. I had a mouse die somewhere inside my work truck many years ago. It was months before I found the dried out remains of a carcass. During the first few weeks, the smell made me want to barf. All I could do was leave the windows open 24/7 and drown out the smell with air-freshioners. I wish I had known about the ozone treatments back then. CD
Someone called NPR's Car Talk, they said, "My dog barfed down the defroster vent, What should I do?" They said, "Sell the truck!"
