Fwd: '66 Dual Air owners & Guru's Too, Pt II



Hola

A little up date with better info.  

Bolted to the compressor there is a single out-let muffler that has a rubber 
hose connected to it that runs in a U shape to the left fender that is 
connected to a hard line ( real near the battery).  Both ends of the rubber 
hose is held on with double clamps.  Since I get shop rates from NAPA  I 
called them and asked for the A/C muffler used on '66 Imperials with dual 
A/C.  They sent me to a place here in town called Maxair.  After being put on 
hold the guy on the phone told me that he would need to look at it.  After I 
get the fittings does the one hose run from under the car coming 
outward/upward from under the passenger foot area to along the firewall and 
then "snake out" near/buy the master cylinder to its connecting point ???

The hose that connects to the passenger fender is a piece of cake.  No 
questions here about it.

Our '66 has the dual A/C option.  but I have a problem using the rear air 
since the hosing is in-complete.  It is rigged so that only the front unit is 
connected.  The two hoses for the rear are connected to the hard lines at the 
firewall and just dangle upward into the engine bay.  Do any of you have a 
photo of the routings and of the connections ????  Or have the ability to 
explain it in very simple terms so that one may "paint" a mentle picture ???

Due to the weather I don't want to use the air at this time.  But in about a 
month I'll be thinking about reaching for that switch.
