RE: [DML] AC condensation drain and coolant leak

["Mike Griese" <mike.griese@xxxx>]

This hose plugs up often. Leaves get into the housing and start
to decompose, plugging up the drain. I had to remove the blower
motor, hook up a vacuum to the hose, and cycle water through the
unit until the water came out clean. 

The hose itself runs along the top of the frame and gas tank. Mine
is long enough to dangle by the right front wheel opening. The
hose is pretty thin walled, so wherever it bends is a good place 
for plugs to form.

Subject: [DML] AC condensation drain and coolant leak


I have noticed that after a drive with the AC on in our very humid 
weather, the car "drips" a lot of clear condensation. Mine is coming 
off the lower gas tank plate in several locations. I am assuming 
there is a drain hose for this, but what is the routing of this 
hose? Mainly, where does it exit the frame? Does it protrude below 
the frame somewhere? Or just fall onto the lower gas tank plate?
