AC condensate drain for Behr AC - 1970 280SE 3.5 coupe

[squasher]

Hi,

I've got a really weird problem in my 1970 280SE 3.5. It has the Behr AC but I have never actually installed it properly until this week (it is a transplant from a long-ago crushed US model 3.5 coupe). Well, I got the AC wired in and everything works sort of OK (weak cooling - probably the compressor), but I have yet to figure out how to route the AC condensate out of the car! There are two drains coming off each side of the Behr blower - one on the lower left rear corner and the other on the lower right corner. However, the left side drain is a little pipe that bends 90 degrees to the RIGHT whereas the drain on the right rear of the compressor exits toward the firewall (straight). This suggests that whatever tube I connect each portal must be joined to the tube from the other side, as there is only one small hole in the floor which could serve a a conduit drain for the AC condensate.

There is also a drain device ("bladder") on the firewall that might be involved, although I don't see how. So does anyone have a Behr AC and can tell me how to rig it up to drain out the condensate?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

Andrew, Not sure if this helps but attached are photos of how it's set up on my 1973 280SEL 4.5.
