You people are the best!

I really had no idea that a clogged AC evap line could back up so that it dumped water into the passenger footwell... without your suggestions, I would have left the heater disconnected, and sold the truck for cheap, letting the new owner know that the heater core was bad (although, admittedly, I might have omitted the part about how it is a 10,000- hour job, by qualified technicians with specialized tools...). But... I followed your advice: Sure as hell, that line was clogged, backed up with a lot of water! I ran a soft wire up the line, and unclogged whatever was in there.... it dumped a half gallon of water on the ground.

I've now reconnected my heater core hoses correctly (damn sure don't need the heater now, but in a few months, it WILL be appreciated!), and everything now seems great!

Thank- you!
