I am smelling the pungent odor of Anti-Freeze in the cabin of my 1984 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.
My first thought was the heater core. However, there is no leaking into the footwell on the right-hand side, and no apparent leaking from the heater core whatsoever. The heater works fine; there is no vapor cloud coming out of the defroster vents when "defrost" is selected. The heater fully heats the cabin, even in the recent sub-zero conditions.
As a result of the above, I am not convinced that this odor is from a failed heater core, although a Jeep with nearly 270K on it would be suspect for that.
Any info will be appreciated.
