Exclamation Help Help Help!

I think i sucked a piece of celophane up into my rec air system, on my AC. Real thin from a cigerette package, ya i know quit smoking...But for the immediate problem has anyone had that motor gone bad or been into the ducting system. It sounds like, remember when you were a kid and clothes pinned baseball cards to your bike and made noise like a motorcylcle, and i dont want to screw up the motor. ANYONE PLEASE HELP, FLORIDA WITHOUT AC IS NO GOOD. THX fellas

I don't think that a cigarette wrapper will burn out your blower motor. Something probably fell down through your defroster vent and worked it's way to the blower. I think you get to the blower from the passenger side firewall under the hood. I haven't had to do this myself though.

I can relate to the A/C problem, I live in Texas.

You're telling on yourself. Baseball cards in your spokes means that you're old, like me. I wish I had some of those cards now, they would be worth some big bucks.

Hmmm, it sounds like someone else has done these things too. Honestly I haven't heard of the bottle cap thing before,but I have ruined plenty of baseball cards though. I really only got them for the gum anyway. That gum was the best.
