Muncher Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 So I cleaned out my cowl today and had to evict some mice from in there. When I cleaned it out I pressure washed it and prayed towards the passanger side. This made water come out onto the floor of the truck.is this just because of the pressure washer or w leak I need to fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 When you say sprayed the air box, did you leave the box in the truck or did you take the box out? Theres a recirc door that is in front of the blower motor where water can leak out of if the drainage hole is plugged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sprayed in the cowl area towards the passenger side where the metal covers over it. Didnt take anything out cause there was nothing on that side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 So my guess since you didnt take the dash out for the box, the recirc door probably doesnt seal all the way and thats why water leaked. With the engine off the recirc door closes and fresh air comes in through the top via here circled in red: Blower motor comes out from the engine bay by three screws. The drain for the air box is located behind the charcoal cannister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Also another part of Cruisers ground tips is the blower motor ground. Highly recommend doing that especially with AC loaded trucks. I never did it because I didnt have AC so a blower moving hot air at a faster speed didnt seem beneficial to me at the time until I had AC installed.
