yes. there is only one substance known to man that will
displace the coolant absorbed in the foam padding under the
carpet:

mouse urine.

yup. that's right. trouble is, it is very very hard to
obtain, and you have to catch about 50 of them little
suckers and squeeze the dickens out of them to get enough to
counteract/displace about 1/2 quart of coolant.

but you put a couple of ounces of mouse/mice urine into your
carpet, and believe you me, you won't be smelling that
coolant ANYmore. :)
