I noticed water sloshing around my 91 after this last storm. I figured my drains were clogged so I opened the moon roof to check them out. I have never messed with the moon roof and it was sticky and crusty. I was able to locate the two drain holes in the front of the moon roof on either side. This piece of plastic was inside one of the holes.
Any idea what this piece is?
I have pulled the drain plugs in the rocker panel to release sloshing water in the past, but I have never messed with the drains from the top. I proceeded to run a piece of weed eater line down the drains with no resistance until I had roughly 6 ft of line in the drain on both sides. At this point the line would not go any farther. Next I poured some water into the front drains and it all poured out of the rocker panels from the holes I unplugged.
I couldn't find the slit under the rig that is supposed to be the real drain, could someone post a picture of this slit?
I can't find or see the rear drains for the moon roof but I think I found the drain lines behind the rear wheels coming from the rear quarter panels so I blew some compressed air into the lines from the bottom.
Does anyone know how to access the rear drains?
I still got water sloshing around and it seems the front drains for the moon roof are working so I am guessing there is water somehow stuck in the rear drains because I dont know where else it would be sloshing around.
Any suggestions on what to do or check next? All I can think of is running more line down the rear drains if I can locate them.
Also my moonroof was very slow and crusty so I cleaned the track and everything I could see. Next, I used some bicycle cable lube to grease the cable thing and some dry teflon type lube on the rest of the track I could access. It seems to open and close quite a bit smoother now.
Does anyone have a good process down for cleaning and lubricating these things? Any preferred cleaning and lubricating products?
Thanks
