Replaced Heater Core, antifreeze smell continues

1998 Jimmy (posting in Chevy forums because there seems to be more responses)

I replaced my heater core because of a pin-hole in it and since then it hasn't leaked anywhere. I also had a pressure test ran on it to verify it is not leaking. When I replaced the heater core, I cleaned up the air box real good, but the leak must have caused it to get into places that I can get to. Now when I run the heater, I can still smell the Antifreeze. I've read that antifreeze doesn't evaporate very easily.

So my question is how do I get rid of the smell? It is so bad, that you have to drive with a window cracked.

Thanks,

Jeff
