Post subject:  nest in my intake box

So I had my CRD parked for 5 months, durring this time a rodent of some kind decided to build a nest in my air intake box. I started it up and it ran normal so I ended up running it for 500-1000 miles before I went and checked my air filter while doing an oil change. When I pulled the filter it was completely full of grass, leaves, & lichen. I think I may have even sucked up the culpret's carcass when I was vacuuming it all out. Luckily it doesn't appear that anything made it past the filter. I think there are also teeth marks that I found in the coolant overflow line so who know what else was getting chewed in there.

also look around for wiring damage - they used some a peanut based oil on some of the wiring loom equipment and apparently it attracts them.
