[QUOTE="FJRMaineiac, post: 739450, member: 1061"] I have struggled with the same issue, and I am trying the mothball fix right now. I found some at Rite Aid that are packaged in little pouches and are 'cedar scented', although they don't smell much like cedar, they do smell a little better than the regular mothball smell. Last fall as I began to disasseble my mc in preparation for repainting, I had the hardest time getting started. I couldn't get the seat off. The key would only turn part way and not enough to unlatch the seat. After much delicate futzing and fiddling (I didn't want to break the key off inside the lock), it finally released. What I found was the whole chamber around the under seat lock tumbler, as well as the air cleaner was chock full of acorns. You can read the link and see the photos here: [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t125088.html"]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/lofiversion/...hp/t125088.html[/URL] I am sure some rodents went hungry this winter because I trashed their stash of nuts. Man, what a PIA. So far so good with the mothballs.... give it a try. [/QUOTE]
