Air Conditioning drain

[Kneale Brownson]

That's the main drain from the HVAC well beneath the rain diverter.  If you
look carefully (easy if your car is white like mine), it's in front of the
plenum between the heater core box and evaporator box.  A piece of 1/2"
wood dowel makes a good poker to open it up and push out the leaves and
pine needles accumulated there.  The other end of that drain is one of
those flat rubber assemblies that are supposed to open under a little
pressure.  If you use too large a poker, you can push the rubber right out
of the sheetmetal.  Opening this drain does not clear out the drainage for
the evaporator box.
