For a couple months now I noticed moisture dripping from the floor vent on the passenger side of the tranny hump. right next to the " SRS" cover (I hope that makes sense)

The moisture is mixed with what I THINK is green paint from when I painted my truck about 4 years ago and got overspray into the exterior vent at the bottom of my windshield.

I know that sounds strange because it seems whatever paint was in there would have dried long ago. So I am open to suggestions for other explanations for the green stuff.

While I first thought the moisture was water, now Im not so sure because it feels somewhat oily. any thoughts?

Ill try to post a pic to help explain.

this is a '96 2500 totally stock 

 

yup, guilty. i have a garden hose attachment for my heater hoses.... should i remove my thermostat during the flush?

Personally... I pull the upper hose, thermostat, and then reinstall just the thermostat housing. Turn a garden hose on high and stick in the radiator. Then start the truck and allow it to pump till clear. I typically stab the throttle a few times to surge water through everything.

ok, thanks . Ill let you know how it all goes

ok, im all recored , flushed and refilled. all seems good again. I did have to regalia the plastic nuts at the front of the dash.

(Gorilla construction adhesive)

But.... i have 2 screws left over. I wouldn't normally worry about 2 screws but they look kinda important.

Anybody recognize these?
