Hello,
another question on my 1972 914. Since it just got colder, I reinstalled the heat boxes and the hoses providing heat in the car. The problem is that now there is a nasty smell in the cabin as I drive, **even** with the heater lever closed. Could it be that old grease on the heater boxes gets heated up and smells? Would this be fixed by putting the heater boxes in a parts cleaner and giving them a good cleaning? Thanks. |
