Wait a second, fellas.

redneckcummins85,

When you say your floorboard has been getting wet, is it with the AC on? Has it been pretty humid in Springfield? Could it be condensation from your AC?...

I know it's Apples and Oranges, but my Chevy work truck will "wet the floor" when the AC is on and it's really humid (Well, really humid by Arizona standards, anyway...)

I would suggest you try to find out if it's coolant on the floor before recommending tearing apart your dash...

Either way, good luck!

I know this is an old thread but I just wanted to say that I did this last weekend and got a 12 degree drop in air temp.

It was 92 degrees out with 81% humidity so I was very happy with the results.

Thanks for the tech tip guys :rocking:

If you like AC for what the part costs I would change the evaperator core while you're in there, unless you want to tear the dash out again next year:c:

Are you having to add coolant?

If you are not having to top the coolant system off then it probably is not coolant.

You say the floor is soaked, seems to me that would take a gallon at least.

when you stop do you still see the acumulation of fluid from the condesation collection, usually shows up by the front passanger tire. If not your tube may have come unconnected or is plugged and the fluid is running into the passanger compartment. The condesation amount is quit alot of fluid, sitting in my driveway for 15 min in florida (90-100% humidity in summer) i will see about a 2 foot diameter puddle of condesate on the ground under my truck.
