Subject:stinky heater boxes
From:Jake Beaulieu

The heat system in my air cooled 82 puts out a lot of heat, but there is one problem, it stinks.  The hot air that comes out stinks up my whole bus and gives me a heck of a headache.  One of the heater boxes is pretty new.  It stunk really bad when brand new, and after 9 months the smell has not completely gone away.  The other heater box is original.  It has definelty been fouled by its share of oil leaks, but I can't find a good way to clean it.  I took it into two different machine shops who both refused to run them through their solvent boxes.
There has gotta be a way to get rid of this horrible smell.  Anybody have any good suggestions.
Jake
