I'm from northern NJ, but I'm working at Case over the summer (which is why I went to deal with the AC so soon!). I've read about the evap. core, but I basically have no tools here. The only way I was able to do this was borrowing a handful of supplies from work. I apparently am in need of a PCV system overhaul as well, which I'll probably end up doing when I'm home for a few days next month. On a side note, thanks to RobertDIY (https://www.youtube.com/user/RSpi007) for the security bit idea.
