Hi guys,

I've been searching on this topic, but wanted to get some 'live' advice.

My A/C and heater has a nasty musty smell when in-use. I suspect that the fins on the a/c evaporator and/or the heater cores are probably coated with build-up over the years, just like my other cars.

With the other cars, I have a way to open up the "input" side of the evaporator/heater and gently clean it off, usually with a garden pressure sprayer that has a very dilute mixture of Simple Green and water. I usually finish off with clear water until everything is clear. Works wonders.

What are the options WITHOUT tearing apart the dash and removing the evaporator. I've read the threads on that, and it is way more effort than worth it for just cleaning things.

I have read that people remove the blower assembly and then go in with a sprayer that way. Is that the only method? Best method?

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Packman
