Re: 100 window fogging



Do you have any kind of craddy stuff building up on the inside of the 
windshield? Any slow coolant lost? Do you smell anything like a sweet 
syrup kind of smell when the heat is on? If you answer 'yes' to all of 
three questions then the heater core in your 100 maybe leaking.
