oil smell

You guys are lucky. I've been running Delvac for a few years and that stuff really stinks. My '01 was the same way. Smell never goes away, if anything it seems to get worse as it gets older (oil that is... black gold, Texas tea... ). I guess I'm one who should look at that link and try it. We'll see.

I used the method mentioned in post #9, it worked great. Mine needed two rubber flappers, about $2. 00 each from dealer. Be careful removing plastic cover at bottom of windshield, I broke off two hidden retainers and had to epoxy them back on. Slide the cover towards the windshield after removing visible retainers to unhook the retainers. It will lift easily then and can be folded slightly to fit between hood hinges. No more smell.

I was in Brentwood, Ca Dodge cashier's office/parts counter and saw that Mopar is offering an oil additive that will give our beasts a "lemon citrus" smell. Unfortunately I did not get the part number, but I am positive that it is a Mopar part.
