Subject:      smelly rear heater
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

This summer I had taken apart my rear heater because of a serious odor
problem.  I rigged up a pressure test and found that the core seemed OK
but the junction between the valve and the core showed some bubbles.  I
replaced the O-ring, and cleaned everything thoroughly.


I still have some odor from the rear heater.  Not as bad as it was, not
overpowering, but definitely noticeable.


I have some Subaru coolant conditioner -- anyone think that would help
with this issue?
