Mitsubishi Repair/Ac not draining

Question

My ac is not draining.. how do I unclog it?

Answer
Johnny,
The best way is to get under the car, find the drain tube (usually under the passanger side of the dashboard under the car), and shoot some compressed air into the drain tube.  Most times, that will clear any clog that developed.  If you do not have an air compressor, you can try to use a bicycle pump or even a can of compressed air that you can find at most camera stores.

If you do not have any of these items available, you can ask any mechanic to shoot some compressed air into the drain tube and that should fix it.  You can also take your car to the dealership.  Odds are, you are still under the warranty and they would have to perform this procedure for free.
Good luck!

Expertise

I have been working with (and driving) a first generation Mitsubishi Eclipse for several years. Anything that could go wrong with an Eclipse has probably happened on mine. Fortunately, I have gained a lot of knowledge from experience in repairing these problems myself.

Experience

Identifying and repairing problems in mechanical and electrical areas. Plus, I have learned many ways to enhance performance to the incredible engine Mitsubishi put in their early model Turbos.
