Pretty normal for evaporator core. We were also looking for a second leak but that's pretty standard.

Since we are in the cyberpeace era undecided..
Permission to criticize?

On most Honda(including the 8th gen Accord) you don't need to dismantle the dashboard to remove the evaporator core/expansion valve.. They can be easily removed through the glove box..

[s]Would have uploaded Honda workshop manual showing the procedure but local man is too lazy to get my butt off the bed & put on my laptop[/s] tongue tongue

Mainwhile on most Toyota/Lexus you have to "rip the dashboard" apart to do that grin grin grin

Actually it was more of the "raw" diagnosis experience I wanted to portray not a polished end product. As for the Carquest caps I will have to steal more next time I'm in Florida. The gloves are available for SALE grin

Funny aside, they're the same gloves in 6 underground.

Oh, Gold was working on a Ford on the other side of the shop.
