Caprice Wagon V8-305 5.0L (1986)
CAUTION: Do not enter vehicle until procedure is completed to avoid exposure to disinfectant.
10.
Place drain pan with at least a two quart capacity below heater/evaporator drain hole to collect disinfectant and rinse water runoff.
11.
Use Kent-Moore tool J-36645 or equivalent siphon-type parts cleaning spray gun capable of delivering two ounces/minute of liquid when driven
with 80-90 psi of compressed air. Insert the nozzle of the spray gun through the blower resistor opening and insert siphon hose into container of
disinfectant. Direct spray toward evaporator face taking extra care to ensure adequate coverage of the corners and edges, completely saturating the
entire core. Use the entire container of solution.
NOTICE:
Do not allow disinfectant to come into contact with hot resistor coils.
12.
Reach into vehicle and turn the ignition to the "OFF" position and allow the core to soak for five minutes.
13.
Double check underneath vehicle to verify proper drain operation. If necessary, unclog and increase drain plug slits with a razor blade or sharp
knife.
14.
Reach into the vehicle and turn the ignition to the "ON" position, but do not start vehicle.
15.
Thoroughly rinse the evaporator core with one quart of clean water using the spray gun to remove any disinfectant residue.
16.
Reach into the vehicle and turn the ignition to the "OFF" position and then reinstall the blower resistor.
NOTICE:
Blower resistor may be hot.
17.
Dispose of disinfectant and rinse water runoff collected in the drain pan in an approved manner.
NOTE:
This procedure will eliminate debris or microbial growth which can cause odors but will not prevent the possibility that debris or
microbes present in the environment may return.
For warranty purposes, use Labor Operation T6235 for 1.1 hours. If debris needs to be removed from heater/evaporator case and the air inlet screen
needs to be sealed, use an add time of .2 hour. If evaporator drain needs to be unclogged, use an add time of .2 hour.
