Subject:87 Vanagon- Antifreeze smell
Date:Wed, 23 Oct 1996 09:32:26 -0600

Hello to all-

Every time I use the rear auxiliary heater (under the rear bench seat) in my 
van, I smell antifreeze!  I recently removed the rear seat to gain access 
the heater core and let the van idle for an hour or so and couldn't see any 
leaks or indication of leaks...   The antifreeze level has slightly dropped 
over the last couple of months (approx 0.25 inch in the overflow tank).

Has anybody else experienced this?  Have any ideas?

Thanks
