96 850 heater/ac smells moldy 850 1996

All,

Looks like I've got a serious mold problem in the HVAC system of my 1996 850 wagon.

I've picked up Wynn's 2 can "AC treatment system" at the local autoparts store and want to confirm a few thngs before I attempt to flush out the stink. One can is meant to flush the evaporator, and the second is more of a basic air freshener.

The fisrt question is, do the 96 850's have a cabin air filter and if so where is it located? I'll have to remove it before spraying the air intake to clean the evaporator.

The second is where is the water drain for the evaporator located. I'd like to clean it out as this may be one of the reasons why it got as bad as it is.

Lastly, any other pointers before I start?

Thanks in advance,
/Kevin
