I worked on the A/C tonight, 3 hours work including the 1 hour stay at Home Depot, trying to find stuff. The leaking problem was (maybe) a broken 90 degree on the passenger side drain hose. I got the soft water 3/8" pond/landscape hose from the lawn center. and ran new hose on both sides of the van. I ran the hose through, the body ,drilled holes to run the hoses straight to the ground , to keep water from buliding up in the body. I heated the ends and slightly crimped them, so the water will not be disturbed, by air flow.The worse part was dropping the unit halfway,on the passenger side to do this . I got a dremel tool and opened up the supply/blower vents to have more direct air flow.With air condtioning foil tape. I taped all the open areas of the evap. section. I also closed the two small vent on the side of air vents .On the back side of the air intake. I tape a section of air filter medium/material to help keep the evaporator clean. Then I installed a fan near near the driver's head to blow more to the cab. Which can be turned around to blow on sleeping campers. The fan plugs into the aux. battery. I cannot thank everyone, who sent me intel on how to repair this turd of a design....Once again thank you....
