    find someone close who cleans carpets they probably can help you out.
    if not try a non bleach detergent or some rug doctor carpet cleaner for pet stains.mix it in a gallon bucket and soak it a little while and dobble it back up with a towel you don't want to get so wet it runs through the carpet and spreads.if you have a wet dry vac it works well.

    Soft Scrub with bleach usually does the trick. The bleach is diluted enough that it won't hurt your carpet. Even laundry detergent with a nice scent should work the same.

    Thanks to all, but I think we have it. A friend brought over some soap that hunters wash their clothes in to remove scent. I think that is going to do it, have to wait a see when it rains on the carpet again. I always knew those dang hunters should be good for something..lol.

    Marine carpet usually cleans up pretty good. I made a mess adding oil, and had a big motor oil stain around my oil cap. I took it to the dealer here (I assume most big dealers have some way of cleaning trade-in's carpet) and it looked brand new. I was debating getting new carpet, But didn't need it. Just in case none of the other remedies don't work.
