Default Car smeel like a skunk

I got this car about a month ago and some days it smells like a skunk mostly on days it rains. Comes from drivers front. The only thing that does not work is th AC. 90 Accord LX

You mean the smell is outside the car (left front)?
Look around for pieces of skunk parts stuffed in the wheel well?

Or does it smell INSIDE?
Musty mold/mildew inside the ventilation air ducts?
Dead mice in the air intake (around the windshield wiper motor)?

Unhappy About Your Skunk Car

The 1st thing is to take it to one of the do-it-yourself car wash's with the majic wand and get underneath it and power spray the heck out of it with the pressure hose...use the soap
mode the 1st couple of times...

Hope it works, that's how I did it when I actually ran over one of those stinking ***##**.
