As some of you know I blew my radiator yesterday, well I got a new one and installed it yesterday and its running fine. There's an overwhelming scent of antifreeze in the cab now. How should I go about removing the smell? Im thinking about taking some gunk to the engine bay, What do you guys think?

If it's just in the engine compartment a good hose down with water should work.

+1... altho, using gunk might be a good idea as well...

Make sure your floor boards arent wet if so, check you heater hose clamps on the engine bay side, and make sure your core isnt broke and leaking into the cab.

Is it smelling up the cab when the heat is on or off, or all the time?

seems to be the whole time, but more so when the heat is on, its only been a day since i changed the radiator so maybe it was my boots covered in antifreeze or my clothes, im gunna do what you said, check the heater hose clamps as well as taking gunk to the bay and maybe even cleaning the carpet, we'll see what happens

Just to be sure its not the core, because that is a god awful task if you havent done it before, feel the carpet behind the lower center console and see if it is wet (where it humps for the tranny). If so, then you know its either the clamps or core, if not, prolly just those boots then.
