Also, just for grins, one purpose of the squeezed end (known as a French Drain) is to keep out spiders. They love protected "caves" They get in and create nests. they eventually clog the hose and now your condensate cannot get out and eventually overflows onto your carpet. They are also found on cars which have Sunroofs. They sometimes go down the Windshield pillar and dump into the cowl area. Over the years, I never found dirt in the drains, just nests.By the way, these are found on almost all cars and trucks Domestic or Foreign.Ray

I have a vague memory that it was a short tube that the end one inch or so was molded flat so that dirt or heat could not raise up into the tube. Water would drip out of the tube.

Subject: {Chrysler 300} Re: 64 Evaporator drain tube
Does anyone have a recollection of this? By now they must have all rotted away.
Was the tube originally in fact short, and draining onto the trans case up by the valve cover?

I was just about to replace the AC drain tube, but the one I bought doesn't appear like it may work; much larger profile and it is pretty short so that it will drain onto the trans housing.
Needless to say, mine is long gone. I did get a remnant of the top of the original tube, which appears it was glued onto a barbed nipple. What was stock?
I can't find any reference to a drain hose in the 64 parts book, and in 63 the reference is to the rear SW drain tube 9 11/16" long.
What have others done? Just run a length of tubing down past the trans, no weeper at the bottom?
