A/C drain tube - What does a modified one look like?
I decided to do a little preventative maintenance on the Vette today. Since I have had almost every one of the 'common problems' happen to my car (Column Lock, leaking axle, battery leak) I figured the drain tube clogging was probably the next item. I bought the car used, and I have no way of knowing if the drain tube was previously modified. I looked at it a little while ago, and it's draining fine, but I don't know what a modified tube is supposed to look like. I was wanting to make sure it's modified so I don't ever have to worry about it clogging, but don't know what I should be looking for.
TIA!
TIA!
