Sweet smell from vents w/ac on?
I'm getting a sweet smell from my vents with the ac on. Normally I would think it's antifreeze but a friend told me freon has a similar smell? It goes away after driving for 10-15 mins. It's been doing this for a few days now but today at a light I saw a white steam/smoke coming from the vents? The truck is a 2001 Mazda B3000 Dual Sport w/96000 or so miles. I really don't want to jump in and change the heater core if that's not the problem, but I will if necesary. I've found a few writeups on how to change the core on a 98 ranger and assume it's the same as mine?

No overheating and it doesn't seem to be losing any coolant. It still has some in the overflow tank. The heat works too. I can bypass it for now if need be till I get time to change it since I live in Texas and won't really need it till the end of october at the soonest. I'm assuming I can just disconnect the lines and get an L or U tube to plug them back together.
