Hi John,
Thanks for the reply. I pulled the elbow off and it was dry & clear. The
car was up on a rack a couple of days ago and water was comming out slowly
drip..................drip..............drip while the car had been off for
about 10 minutes waiting for the rack. So it appears the clog is still
inside the evaporator housing. After driving for a while and then sitting
at a light waiting for green, if I accelerate quickly several water drops
land on my GF's feet, quite annoying to her, she must love me much. So,
any other ideas or tricks??
Thanks John

John,
Yes, the drain you spoke of outside that is blocked can be cleared
relatively easy. It is located on the firewall on the passenger side
somewhere near and just a little lower and toward the middle of the car from
the power steering pump. It will be a small black tube with an elbow in it
that just slips on a nipple sticking through the firewall. It is pinched
together at the bottom and the condensation water is supposed to drip out of
it and under the car. Over time, dirt blocks the opening on the pinched end.
Just carefully pull the hose off and then flush the dirt and grime out of it
then reinstall. It really is as simple as that. If you are getting water in
the car from the condensation, then be prepared when you pull it off as a
fair amount of water should come out with it as well.
Good Luck!

Subject: SD> A/C leaking water inside
Hello All
I have been watching this list for many years but post rarely because most
of
my answers are found here before I have ever needed them. Today is
different.
My A/C is leaking water inside. I'm sure it is something like leaves or
something blocking the outside drain. So my question- Is there some trick
way
of getting the blockage out without pulling the whole dash and A/C unit out
to
disassemble & clean??
