From the Air Box facing inside the wall engine, there are two hoses connected into the car engine from the Heater System element maybe, I still did not see the actual scenario -- the two hoses are arranged in vertical position, we can simply identify the connections into upper hose connection and the lower hose connection. I noticed both are connected into the car engine --- are you referring that these connections be disabled? (Top it off?). If disabled, would it stop the function of the heating elements inside the Air Box? So that if there is a leak it will stop also as well as to observe if the radiator fluid would still be dropping down or not after disabling the active connections of the two hoses but must be I believe in appropriate way, done by a good Car Mechanic.

I am actually talking to you only as Car Owner not as a Car Mechanic with a little idea doing the car repair job itself but at least I have a little ability in analyzing the repair situation before I would talk to a Car Mechanic himself. Because I noticed regarding my car smell problem --- nobody is suggesting the specific solution out of all Car Mechanics I already have approached to --- which I am guessing why and what are their reasons: All of them are not telling the specific solution --- maybe because if they will tell "this thing" and the correct one is "that thing", the cost involve after works if done wrongly will come to their heads --- so that the situation now for me would dictate that the Car Mechanic will do the work only after I will tell the specific work to be carried by them etc: like maybe I will tell repair or replace parts in Engine Clutch System, maybe the smell is from there; or the break system or the Cooler/Heater inside the Air Box or whatever is the correct solution --- something that the Car Mechanics are silent as to which one is the solution to avoid cost blame afterwards when their repair ideas turn to be wrong. Those are my "Guess" why all Car Mechanics I already approached to --- seem to be no specific solution/s.

While I am discussing with you regarding my car smell problem of course you have suggestions and thank you very much for all of these, but the decision is still to be "Carried On" by me --- but you always have the logic.

Best regards my Friend CTScott
GOD BLESS YOU

By "top it off" I mean to fill the coolant via the radiator cap. Once it is filled you should start the car (with the cap off) and let the car run until the engine gets warm enough for the thermostat to open. At that point watch for air bubbles. If you see bubbles then there is air in the system. Keep adding water if it goes down while the bubbles escape. Once the bubbles stop, put the cap on. After that check the level of the radiator fluid every couple of days to see if it goes down.
