It was producing good heat at lunch

is that it smells - sort of like heated
rubber.

What model?  124s have a foam-covered flap under the wiper transmission
that activates the recirc function of the ACC.  When the foam starts to rot
it blows onto the heater core and melts fragrantly.  Solution is to take
out everything in the way and scrape the flap clean.  No idea if or how
this relates to 123s.
