[DML] Re: Nasty smell still.

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The little buggers could have gotten inside the seats and messed them
up. Undo the 4 nuts each and pull them out and look. Also they could
have gotten inside the heater/A/C box. Pull the fan motor and inspect
for nesting materiel. You can try washing the insides of the box
without removing it from the car but in the end the only way to really
get it clean will be to take it out. One of the worst jobs on a
Delorean. Not only is it an annoyance (the smell) it is unsanitary and
can breed diseases. You really do need to clean the smell out with
sanitizers, not mask it with deoderizers. Also remove the plastic
grill in front of the windscreen and clean out the fresh air intake
and the drain hose.
