Anitfreeze in evaporator December 13, 2008, 09:31:02 PM Well guys I have sucessfully completed my 3.8 to 5.0 swap. The car runs and everything. I was letting it run to check for problems, it appears that anitfreeze is dripping out of the evaporator tube, you know the thing the water drips out for the Air conditioner. I think thats what it is, its a small opening on the passenger side, far down are its surrounded with some soft of putty stuff. Unless this isn't the weep hole for that.Anyone have and ideas or suggestions? I'm thinking maybe the heatercore, but I really don't know. The heater core seemed fine before the motor swap.Suggestions? Quote Selected
