[DMCForum] Re: Rotten Wood/Carpet at Battery Compartment



Rich, I hear that a lot of water can get into the a/c just
from rain.  Somehow it splashes through the intake duct
under the windshield and from there soaks into the blower
motor.  After having my dash all apart, I don't see how a
little tilt one direction or another could help or prevent
water from going in the wrong places.  I had to replace my
blower because of rust.  On the new one, I put caulk over
the seams on the top of it to keep water out.  There are
other holes higher up under the squirrel cage that are
important for internal cooling, so don't seal those up.

Now on your blower where you mention a drain hole on the
bottom, I think you may be referring to the hole that is
supposed to have a rubber hose attached.  From there it
elbows up to a nipple in the a/c housing.  Are you missing
this hose?

> The evap is which part?

That's the radiator-looking thing that is hidden in the
dash.  You should hope that you never need to remove it.
I've had mine out & repaired because the previous owner
kinked the lines in a failed attempt to replace the orifice
tube & accumulator.  The shame of it now is that I think it
still may be leaking.

> The condensor is the
part mounted to the radiator right?

Yep.  Actually it is a "condenser" spelled with an "e".  It
gets confusing.  I frequently hear people (including myself)
calling parts by the wrong name.  To make matters more
confusing, the DeLorean's a/c system uses an accumulator and
the fuel system also uses another kind of accumulator.
Other kinds of a/c systems can use a receiver-dryer which is
very similar to an accumulator but not the same.  Are you
further confused yet?
