A/C in youngest one’s car had not been firing on all cylinders for a while so I let her use my vehicle while I was out of state. Saturday I visited my friendly mechanic to have him diagnose the problem. His initial thought was the ‘blower motor’ since you could sense cool air emitting from the vents but with no sense of power. The glove box had to be dismantled in order to access said part and that required some acrobatics on his part!!!
“Um, BA, I want to show you something.”
I saw two items in his hand: the air filter for the a/c (extremely GROSS) and a plastic sheet resembling a shopping bag. It was a lobster bib from the national chain which had somehow worked its way on to the filter, hence blocking the flow of air. The filter cost $25 to replace rather than $125 for the blower motor. (Parts not labor!)
When questioned about the bib, I was told that she was going to tease me that she had gone to eat lobster and I didn’t get to go. Her dad talked her out of picking on me; karma still got her though!
