#59 of 66 AC condnsate drain problem by jaxbud Sep 06, 2009 (11:29 am)
I solved the problem of water leaking inside on my 2001 Pontiac Montana by adding a PVC elbow to the short plastic drain sticking straight out through the firewall. A deteriorated seal behind the firewall allows the water to run back the drain spout and inside the vehicle. I inserted a short piece of 5/8 " heater hose in the 3/4" PC elbow to make it fit on the drain spout and added caulking at the back to prevent any water entering the firewall. This was done from under the vehicle. It's tricky but doable with patience. Of course you could rotate the engine forward and have better access to the drain.

Replying to: cach22 (Mar 15, 2009 4:53 pm) Had the same problem with the a/c. Took it in last year and it was over $600 to fix. Good luck.
#61 of 66 Rad replacement 2001 Venture by jhd Sep 20, 2009 (11:17 am)
Local garage tells me to replace a radiator in 2001 Venture they need to empty AC unit because the rad comes out thru the front, so evaporator needs to be removed. Is this correct? Can it be removed from the back after removal of top engine mount brackets, air box and fans? I know tranny lines go thru the rad but that’s no problem. Rad leaks to near the drain plug area. I am hoping that this is a drain plug o-ring and not the rad end seal. I do not have towing package, so this is just a regular van. I also need to replace thermostat. Do I need any special tools for that or after removal of throttle body assembly and heat shield I can get to the bottom bolt? This is insane design to place thermostat like this. The van is not worth as much as they wanted to charge me for both of these jobs.
#62 of 66 Air flow on heat by bigduane Oct 05, 2009 (6:31 pm)
I have a 2003 chevy venture, when on heat it has little air flow from dash vents but blows strong on defrost or when on AC. Sounds like there is a damper partially open preventing air flow. What is the most likely cause.

Replying to: greenhorn3 (Oct 13, 2009 2:03 pm) Sounds like a clogged heater core. How is your coolant level under the hood? Replies to this message: greenhorn3 (Oct 15, 2009 4:48 pm) greenhorn3 (Nov 14, 2009 3:24 pm)
