Ac smell
So the last few days I have been noticing a mildew like smell coming from my ac, so I need to clean it out, I know what to do, but I need to know how to get at the Evan core and drain. Anybody have to do this before or know the easiest way to get at it?

Yeah that's the first thing I thought of, I'm planning on circulating some Lysol through the system but I need to know where the drain for the evap is so I can make sure it's not clogged up.

From another site:
The AC evaporator/core condensation drain tube is located on the passenger side of the fire-wall towards the bottom of the fire-wall, (it resembles a heater hose that is coming off from the fire-wall and it connects to nothing, and it is just to drain the AC condensation) and it is easily viewed from under the vehicle. Use long pipe cleaners folded in half to clean out the AC drain, and be very careful that the AC evaporator/core, or the heater core is not damaged from using any hard or sharp objects to clean out the AC drain.

I would spray the Lysol in the air intake at the top of the windshield with the ac running blower on high to make sure it gets totally circulated but make sure you like the Lysol smell it will get inside the cab

The lysol really helped the smell, now i gotta get some pipe cleaners and make sure the drain isnt clogged so it wont come back.
