Cleaning Instructions: All Models
1. Place a drain pan under the A/C evaporator drain hose.2. Attach wand to the spray tool. (An optional wand is required for 1986-89 Excels.)
3. With the ball valve closed, fasten the # 1 aerosol Air Conditioning Cleaner can onto the spray tool snugly.
4. Place the tool hanger around the grooved slot on the spray tool adapter.
5. Hang the aerosol unit upside down, so that it hangs above the passenger door.
6. Insert the wand into the hole that was drilled in the "Special Instructions" section, or into the opening for the blower motor resistor. Open the ball valve.
7. Push the wand back to the far side of the evaporator. Press the trigger to activate the spray. Using an up and down sweeping motion, move the wand from the left to the right side of the evaporator. The unit sprays for a little over 30 seconds, so speed is required to clean all of the evaporator. (Also, for maximum cleaning, hold the wand close to the evaporator without touching the fins.)
8. Remove the empty # 1 aerosol can and close the ball valve. Fasten the # 2 aerosol can onto the spray tool. Hang this unit upside down above the passenger door.
9. Repeat steps 6 and 7. The air conditioning evaporator is now clean.
10. A. For vehicles that had the blower motor resistor removed, replace the blower motor resistor and reconnect the wiring harness.
B. For vehicles that had an access hole drilled, cut a piece of Scotch Electrical Moisture Sealant (3M - P/N 06149) or equivalent to cover the drilled hole. Wipe the outside surface of the drilled hole with a clean rag.
11. Replace the glove box, main lower dash pad assembly, and lower dash pad cover.
12. Open both front doors and start the engine. Turn the heat and blower to maximum. Run for about 10 minutes or until all of the alcohol odor is no longer present.
13. Clean up the area. Remove the drain pan and dispose of the contents as required by your local ordinances.
