[s-cars] Fwd: Squealing chipmunks (in dash vent)

[Robert Myers]

Mark,  I was hoping you'd say just spray away with that can of 
Kroil.  Sounds not that easy.  Oh well... Looks like maybe I have 
another job for one day this summer (one week this summer?). Maybe I 
can just replace the brushes. Hafta take a good look-see.
