smell of oil when heater blowing

Post by MRpunchinella » Thu Mar 29, 2007 8:24 am

interior fine (except after washing roof - stinks) but when im running the blower there is a definate oil smell, as if the engine was in beside me (guess it almost is :lol: )

Any suggestions about a fix - pour aftershave into vents ????? on a serious note - please fix my "does your car still smell of oil" problem, its killing my chances on a promise :wink:

cheers

Get an empty v. expensive perfume bottle and fill with engine oil (New or used, depends on your tastes and budget), give to date as a present, job's a potato.

She's chuffed that you have bought her an (Apparently) expensive perfume, (lets face it she won't care what it smells like as long as it appears to be expensive) and you don't get complaints about the smell in your car.

I suppose it depends on if you find the smell of Mobil1/Castrol GTX/halfrauds own attractive or not mainly....

....as Holmes would say to his faithful companion "its elementary (lemon entry) my dear Watson"....

without graphics it does fall down a bit. Guess im stuck with no blower, the roof off and a date smeared with sunpat (who's he?)

end of topic....I thank you.......... 8)
