also check and make sure that the drain for the evap. is not plugged as it will cause condensation to build in the evap. box and cause a moldy smell there is a drain line in the box if u can get to it spray some bleach in the box and it sould take car of it but i would make sure to let the car air out for a while

The air intake invents are forever locked in an enclosure sealed by rubber and covered by the hood. Thinnk about a room locked up and never used - open the window and let air in and the smell is gone.
