Wierd smell from console???

[Hummer Geek]

O.C. I traveled to Arkansas a couple of weekends ago and since I got back, I've had a strange smell too. I guess I'll check under the hood. I thought my kids left a banana peel or something in the back but it seems like it is coming from the console or maybe the fan.

Question, if the air filter needed to be changed would the air coming from the fan/air/heat be dirty?

A certain female member of this household left a frozen turkey under the seat of her old car. Hell, I thought there was a dirty diaper under the seat or something.:barf:

It was a whole chicken (kinda tiny), an afterthought at the store to bake and pick on one day.

Twas in the summer. The wrapping had puffed out and it looked like a balloon of disgustingness.

We had a squirrel get wedged between the engine and firewall in an Explorer years ago and that caused a smell for days until we noticed a bit of tail sticking up at the back of the engine.

Pretty nasty, but the smell went away when the squirrel was removed.

Did you ever find the smell? I put some freshners in the truck hoping that even though they only mask the smell, whatever it is will eventually fade.

I can't really smell it lately but I'll be damned if I could find a dead animal... perhaps one day I'll find the remnants of one.

No, after about a week, it just went away. Maybe the critter decayed enough that the smell went away. I really don't know what it could have been. I'm going to change all of the filters, it's about time anyway.
