Cleaned the a-coil and of course all the debris went down into the drain pan and now it won't drain right, it runs over the pan and onto the floor I got the holes cleaned out with a wire but don't have anything small enough to get in there and vac the junk out. Anybody have something they have used? The holes are approx 1 inch square.
Thanks
Bruce
 
Without seeing what you have, impossible to suggest. I used to perform HVAC /R repair and maintenance, and sometimes you had to get fairly imaginitive
 
I've taken 5/8" heater hose and even went down to 3/8" fuel line and duct taped them together and then to a shop vac and vacuumed real small places. It can take some time but it got done what i needed to do. Last time i used this to vacuum the coils under the fridge :D.
 
Thanks for all the help I found out the a-coil was tilted back and the drain outlet was pointing up, fixed those and got some good drainage now
thanks again
Bruce
