Lightbulb Interior Smells?

Recently purchased a 2000 F150 Lariat from a cattle farmer. For weeks I noticed that when the heat or the a/c was running, the truck reaked of cow s**t! I washed the carpets, sprayed the heck out of the vents with Lysol, but nothing would get rid of the smell. Yesterday I picked up a can of Wynn's Fresh Air Air Conditioning and Heating System Odour Treatment and followed the directions. The smell is finally gone!!!!!!!!
This is what I did with the Wynn's spray. (I had tried the same thing with Lysol, but it didn't help)
1. Open windows and doors
2. Turn on fan to high, set a/c to the normal(not max) setting
3. Spray product into outside air intake vent (on passanger side between windshield and hood) for 10 seconds, wait 5 minutes.
4. Turn off a/c, turn on heater to high, fan to full.
5. Repeat step 3.
Ran through this process twice and the truck is as good as new.
I hope this helps someone else.

Hmmm, this caught my eye because I just got a '98 with a similar problem... Gotta love farm trucks.

However, I went to the website, and even contacted a distibuter in my area and they said that they no longer sell the item in stores. Any ideas where I may be able to pick one up? I don't want to pay someone else to do it...

Years ago I bought an old Ford pickup ('67, 352, 4 on the floor, granny low, fuel tank right behind the seat, a real live bomb), to use as a work truck for next to nothing that had been owned by a pig farmer. Apparently he hauled them around in the back, there had been pig s**t back there for so long that there was a heavy coating of rust on the floor of the bed and about half way up the side. There was even pig s**t in the cab where he must have drug it in with his boots (or bare feet, who knows, hell, maybe they rode up front with him).

I cleaned it up the best I could, but I could always get a faint (and sometimes strong) whiff of pig s**t everytime it rained, or was real hot and humid.

My wife nicknamed the truck "Piggy", which I guess was appropriate. I drove it for 2 years, and sold it for a couple of hundred dollars less than I paid for....it was a cool day and the truck smelled just fine.
