Egg down vent

Our toddler cracked egg/s into the vent at the bottom of the windscreen internally. I gather removing getting to it could be very tricky. What should we do? This is a ford transit if that makes a difference.

I think you will have to remove it as if you dont it will smell.

We found a hole close to the floor so washed it through with water

Ok so now the question is, "egg and water in carpets and heater"?

Or is it vinyl floor?

If thats the case i would wait and see.

It's fine, no carpet and the we've run lots of hot air so it's definitely clean and dry, no smells.

Lol on the accident with the egg, out of interest how in the world did the toddler manage it? A toddler is quite small and the base of a windscreen is relatively high and at a distance from a toddler.
You will have to fill in the details because I'm recking my head how it was done

It's a converted bus and there is a box by the stairwell where he stood. My partner (stupidly) had left eggs on the dashboard. Egg/s went in internal vent.

Obviously getting ready for Easter. The things toddlers can get up to! I presume the can was parked at the time.

Yes, parked, just about to cook breakfast (it's a camper). Toddlers indeed have a lot of experimentation to do. We're just about laughing about this one now.

When you say a hole down the bottom, is it the vent at your feet where its coming from?

:eek: Could be worse I've a mate spilled a curry down the vent of his work van. He just wore a jacket instead of using the heater for a year.
I'd run a flexible hose attached to a nozzle of a BIG air compressor into the van from outside through the HVAC intake vents turn the blower on full set to windsreen flow only (careful you dont shove the hose in too far to hit the blower fan fins) and blast the bee-jaysus outtov it back into the van if it gives you any further bother.
