Very dangerous misinformation being given here, people can and do die from automotive related CO poisoning every year. It's the most common cause of air poisoning as a matter of fact. It's a very toxic gas the is oderless and colourless.


"CO" IS carbon monoxide, which a combustion engine of any kind emits as part of combination of gases as exhaust. Most people also don't know that when Freon(r) is burned it produces mustard gas, something to think about if you do any kind of hvac work on R12 based systems.
