Compliments of the season to all:

Can someone tell me where the a/c condensation drain pipe is on an '96 80 series cruiser? I can't find it under the vehicle as I am not sure where it comes thru the firewall. I think there maybe a split in the pipe as I am getting moisture under the floor matting after using the a/c.

Cheers
David

left hand side in engine compartment. In line with the leading arm. Water drips down on them near where the arm meets the diff. Probably just blocked which cause water to back up and enter the passenger compartment. Quick blow with the air hose usually does the trick

David, also check under the dash where the fan coil is (passenger side) I have had the same problem and it turned out that the hose had come detatched from the fan unit. It is easy to see when you check the back of the unit

Hi David, just had a look at mine, inside engine bay left side it comes out of the firewall right alongside the main body of the starter motor 12mm pipe runs down and finishes just above chassis . as said above blow out with air.
Regards Ken.

PS. mine is 1HZ motor.

David, if you are going to blow it out with compressed air, do it from the fan coil end (disconnect the hose) otherwise you will blowe all the crap inside the fan coil tray
