dodge truck
 
ok this one is for my girlfreind. she tells me some times when she turns on her ac or heater itll blow smoke out through her vent

every time im with her or i go to look at it it never does any thing unusual

one of her freinds said she has i vacumm leak on the her ac hoses and that its leaking freon but her ac is colder than hell so i dont think thats it any one got an idea
99 1500 v8 magnum by the way

Road dust in vent system

Is there a film on the inside of the windshield ? THAT would indicate freon or heater core leak

txhunter69 05-19-2009 11:44 AM

HEATER CORE HEATER CORE HEATER CORE
thats exactly what mine did when it went out
but i ddint even know what it was and i jsut let it go
then all the sudden about a month later antifreeze started pooring out from under the glove box
not a good thing lol

yea it miost likely would be ur heater core going out. its burning up its gonna start leking then jus give out

mopar1968 05-19-2009 04:54 PM

It's either the heater core or the evaporator is leaking some freon, and it is puddling in the bottom of the box, when you cut on the blower it blows it out, just a thought. since i work at a dealer.

You live in Texas, you dont' need no stinking heater. Oh wait, that's just in Houston.

you have to rake the dash off right

THERATTLER 05-20-2009 01:54 PM

ONLY IF IT HAS LEAVES ON IT :D

mopar1968 05-20-2009 02:29 PM

Yeah there is only 7 bolts that holds it, 5 accross the top next to windshield, 1 on each side at the kick panel. Take the bulk connector loose, with a 10mm socket, lift dash out, there are 5 nut's at outer firewall behind engine, take nut's off remove heater box, place on table, take 12 philips, screws out lift off top remove heater core, reinstall in reverse order or turn computer upside down :!: :!:
