Scotty, do you endorse some of these products you feature in your videos?

[scottykilmer]

@hummarstra na, I just use em. But if you can get me a sponsorship, I'd gladly share the money with you.

excellent tip sir, but the way you applied the silicone was nasty

[scottykilmer]

@sr5813 it is not silicone, you did not watch the video very closely. And yea, it's a messy job, that's life, you just hose the reside off. Scotty

Hey Scotty lately I've been noticing a kind of mist coming out of the vents into the inside car compartment when I turn on the AC, specially when it has rained outside or when is misty outside, however it does have a funny smell, but it only mist when the AC is on. When I turn of the AC it stops. Do you have any suggestions. Thank you very much.

[scottykilmer]

@74bluewolf yea, clean out your evap case, spray some lysol in there, you probably have bacteria and mold living in there. Also clean the drain hose, it may be clogging up. Scotty

You are a nut but I wish you were my neighbor. :)

Again, great vid!

[scottykilmer]

@stonehopper1067 This is MUCH better, as it coats it an prevents bacteria and mold from growing again for a LONG time. Scotty

@scottykilmer you did say silicone...

[mwstakyle]

Scotty your videos are really helpful, thanks!

I didn't read all these comments, but what also helps is to turn off the A/C and run it on vent only, your last mile or so. This dries up the air in there, and helps keep the stink away. I guess in humid areas you may want to run the heater.

@scottykilmer you clearly said silicone at 2:32

WHY YOU'RE WORRY ABOUT THE WAY HE APPLIED THE SILICONE
