Default A/C Trouble

Hi all
1st time here & 1st post. I appreciate all answers.

As you can see from the title I got A/C trouble. But not the usual kind. It's not leaking, does blow cold air ect.

It is a '94 4cyl. & runs great & gets good mileage but just recently it begaing giving off a toxic stench when the A/C is switched on.

By toxic I mean it smells like ammonia or formaldehyde!!! I checked the heater core thinking I might have a leak there but it's ok. I haven't torn into the evaporator yet. Hopping to get some input before I go that far.

Like I said it's a great little truck but I live in Texas & it is July........I just can't live with that smell.
Thx inadvance
Draco

Default A/C Trouble

Addendum:
I have been looking through my chiltons manual & there is no description of how to get at the Evaporator. I can see the housing obviously but am not anxious to tear it apart till I have a better Idea of what I'm looking for.

There is a description of removing the heater core which was helpful when I checked that.

And I know how to get the blower out but haven't yet. Hopping someone will have a suggestion on how to correct this before I start tearing into it too deeply

Thx Again
Draco
