Pine needles in defroster duct
Greetings All,
So I turned on the defroster in my '98 TJ for the first time in months today, and the smell of burning pine needles immediately followed by billowing smoke poured out... I popped off the wipers and vent cover and stuck my shop-vac hose down into the air intake and vacuumed out *tons* of junk. I then re-ran the defroster for a while, and other than a light residual burning smell, no more fire. Good. :) I'm looking for opinions on whether I should try to tear right into it and disassemble the entire system, or is this a *major* PITA? I've never done it before, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -John |

Vacuum it again and then spray Lyson down there with the AC running to kill the smell, it should be OK. -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org |
