Re: LINGERING INTERIOR ODOR

[bmcclellan@xxxx]

Since I haven't heard anyone mention this possibility as a source of the 
odor, I thought I'd mention it. When we bought our '81 International with 
all original decor (yes, burnt orange/brown everything!), we had a pretty 
disgusting odor. Some thought it must be dead, decaying animal. Another 
thought it smelled like we had a propane leak. After chasing both of these 
possibilities, we just happened to swap out the curtains with a new set of 
drapes from James Ambruso. The smell went away. I think it may have been 
the drapes disintegrating. 

BTW, the drapes are great. We had blackout linings put in them. They seem 
to help for insulation for late fall camping in the northwoods.
