Smell it to make sure its coolant before you go in and replace the heater core. It most liklely is if the car is garaged but better to be safe then sorry.

See this thread.

It's most likely a clogged hole in your evaporator housing. It was for me.

Yup. It is either the heater core or clogged evaporator hole.

Check and make sure which one it is.

Thanks Its Still Udner Warranty So I Will Take Back Unless It Is Easier/cheaper For Me To Fix It Myself (cause I Would Be Without My Wheels!)? How Much?

Hey What Is That Hump On The Floor?

The hump on the passanger side floor is where the exhaust is routed. Its there cause the car is to low to have the exhaust hang any lower so they just pushed it up into the floor boards.

Yup, but which is/are actually not even located under the hump itself.

The hump is a leftover from the 3rd Gen floorpan. GM saved money and used same/similar floorpan as in the 3rd Gens.

Actually, the 93-95 fourth gens had a single cat directly under that hump. In 96 they went to dual cats that were no longer under the hump, but they didn't redesign the floorpan do to cost.

It won't hurty anything. Mine clogged up on the way to Ohio for the Firehawk Rally and I had to drive most of the way there and back without it. Just make sure you get it unclogged in a reasonably quick time (no more than a week or so) or it'll start mildewing and then you'll never get the smell out.
