Vent- Cabin air inlet location

Hello,

I have a 1990 F-350 custom crew cab. I think a rodent has died near the fresh air inlet to the HVAC system, so the air is ehhh not so fresh.

Curious as to where I should start to look for this vile decomposing carcass?

TIA
SteveO

Remove the blower motor and have a look inside. That will give you access to the area up to the evaporator. Mine was packed full of bedding materials when I bought my truck.
