Air defrost only

I cant reach the hole in the firewall from inside with the dash in. I can get my finger on the line just cant get a grip on it. I plugged the broke line from the T under the hood with electricle tape. Everything seems fine except ac and heat only blow out the defrost. If it dont stumble, grumble or stall I'm good with it for know.

could you fish a coat hanger in there and tape the new rubber hose to it and pull it through ?

I can only get a finger on it. Gonna be hard to tape it. I only messed with it for 20 min or so after I got the tank on. There aint alot of room back there. I get around to it one day, maybe.

get you about 4 foot of rubber hose that the original tubing will fit into. hook the rubber hose to it somewhere you can. then stick the coat hanger into the other end and pull it through the hole in the firewall then hook it up to the T-fitting. Just replace a section of the factory tube with the rubber hose. I had a Bronco that I had to replace 3 ft of crumbling vacuum tube with rubber hose worked just fine.

Anyone ever move that fuse box behind the glove out of the way. It looks like its just 2 screws. If I could move it to the side I may be able to reach the hose.

Pervert move….. all because he can’t go back to Twin Pines Galleria due to his indecent exposure charge. Then when the judge reviewed the photographs from the cameras, he stated he didn’t see how something like that could offend anybody…. And then he wondered if the cameras were somehow reducing the size of the image..
