I've done some poking around, and haven't found the answer to my question.

My rig has been running fine for some time, but just recently, it's been peeing coolant on the floor of my garage from the passenger's side, dripping down the pass side inner fender well. It wouldn't leak until after the engine was cool, never seemed to find it until after the rig had sit for a while.

I checked hoses and the heater control valve, and have found nothing. I drove the Ex up on ramps to do the oil change today, and figured while it's up, I'd get a better vantage on looking under the rig. I pulled the fender well aside and found a random tube sticking from the firewall below the heater box with a drop of coolant on it. I am going to claim this to be my problem. The problem is, I have no idea what this is.

I changed out the A/C box to a non-A/C box to open up space in the engine bay, but for some reason, I don't recall seeing this, or even disconnecting anything from it. I was hoping someone here would have some info as to what it may be.

My bet it's the heater core, which is a fairly easy fix on the gen I's.
And fairly cheap, too.:thumbsup:
 












That is the heater/ air cond. Box drain tube. Since you dont have ac the only way water can get in there is from a leaking heater core.
