I finally got done with school and pulled my car out of storage and find out that mice had made there way into the heater assembly. (yes I put moth ***** around the car all the time)
I pulled the blower down and seem to have gotten most of the stuff out. My question is where did they get in. Where does the fresh air come from?
My second question is how hard is it to pull the dash out? I am thinking of doing this so I can inspect all of the duct and cleen them out really good so that the smell doens't linger. Thanks

I had full size acorns in my air box. From how the filter looks, the previous owner never changed it. He definately stored it for Winters because I can't see how nuts could get in there. Damn vermin.

Blow up or win

You'll never get rid of them, so why bother?
I installed a "squirrel cage", hooked it up to the turbos, and trained my boys to do wind sprints. It's good for an extra 15 hp, although the Purina mouse chow bills are killing me.
It also cured the 3K hesitation problem.
