Fumes in the passenger compartment
Fumes in the passenger compartment
...when I use the heater or a/c. Where do I start? What is the likely culprit? exhaust manifold/gasket?

Re: Fumes in the passenger compartment
I'd check where the header and Y-pipe connect first. I've had to re-seat this connection on a couple vans.
