Re: CJ drain question
Is it the drain hose for the evaporator or condensor, or whatever the part
is that lives under the dash and fills with water?

I'm not sure, it is not actually hooked up to anything at the moment.
It looks like it ought to be hooked up to something on the ac coil in
the passenger's side of the dash.

Re: CJ drain question
It sounds like the drain hose, and an errant foot has knocked it out of
place.
There is an evaporator that lives under the dash (you found it already) that
takes warm and moist air from outside and turns it into cold dry air inside.
The water that is in the air collects in the evaporator and drains to the
outside. Have you ever seen the puddle that forms under a car parked in your
driveway in the summer? This puddle is from the AC system in general, and
from that hose you are asking about in particular. You should be having a
puddle forming on the floor in your Jeep if that hose is not connected.
Some of us have had that hose get plugged with navel lint, and the
evaporator will overflow into the passenger compartment footwell. You should
see if you can pull that hose completely out and make sure it is clear, then
put it back in. There should be a nipple (no, not Janet's) nearby that you
can connect that hose to.

Re: CJ drain question
"Behind" has me confused. to me, behind means closer to the rear axle than
the front, but the AC drain hose would be about a foot forward of the
shifter and on the passenger side. If one was sitting in the driver's seat,
"behind" might mean the space between the shifter and the firewall - which
is "forward" of the shifter. A foot behind the shifters would be squarely
between the seats.
