I am having a problem with a hole in the firewall. It has nothing to do with the heater core as I can account for both the inlet and outlet hoses from that. It is a hole about the size of nickel and water drains out of it. The car came that way and I am wondering what this could be and where it goes. When I fill the radiator up, the water drains out of this hole. I need to know where the hose for this hole is supposed to go? Something was there, maybe not even a hose or tube, but I sure could use your help. Any ideas, please? Otis I do not know for sure but I think this may be a drain for the heater/air |

Otis I do not know for sure but I think this may be a drain for the heater/air conditioner case. If so, it would drain the water condensing off of the cold AC evaporator coil and also any rain water that made it in there thru the fresh air intake. If the radiator coolant leaks out of there, you have a leak in the heater core. In some cases, a leak where the hoses connect to the heater core can cause water to seep into the heater case and come out the drain. Many cars do have a drain hose connected to lead the drain water down under the car. hope this helps a little. Don Young |
