Charlie - I got the front cover off. The two cores look very clean from the front. Beats me how that stuff gets in behind there...

John H - I had to remove all that you noted. I didn't realize the bottom would come off, but it did.

Rob - Yes, the doubler was there, and slightly bent DOWN in the middle. If the holes are centered, I'll just replace it with the crown up - good advice! And it looks like there is/was a foam strip all around the circumference of the evaporator on the inside of that bottom cover. Now all I have to do is find replacement foam for the doors, etc - boy, that old foam stuff is nasty!

Dennis - thanks for the link. I have seen those before, but couldn't find them today. The ones I saw this week were of the resistors removed, and looking like what I found today. I really hate to tear into it any more, but I know I should as long as I'm this far. Now that the bottom is off, I'll look tomorrow with a mirror at the back side of the evap and see what's there. Because I posted a few days ago about the a/c system cycling on and off every 20 seconds (low on Duracool), maybe it's just a good time to look at it all and replace the things idrob did.

Thanks for all the comments and advice
