Default heat smells like......

hey guys, this is for a buddy of mine. he has a dakota too. whenever he puts his heat on, it smells like a big turd. i'm thinking mold? IDK. if nothing else i'm just going to stab a Lysol aerosol can and grenade it in there and slam the door shut..... haha.

kinda reminds me of the one prank i watched my friend do to his ex's boyfriend's car. took dog poo and jammed it into the door handles. nothing more says welcome then trying to get into your car and sticking your fingers into chunky dog sh*t.. hahaha.

+2 on the drain back valve
