The rear drain holes on my 74 coupe are clogged. Does anyone have any experience with this? I have tried blowing them out with air, but had no luck.

Sorry -- I meant to mention that these are the drain holes that begin just behind the sun roof and exit into the motor area.

Insert a small diameter rigid wire from the sunroof area through the tube until you poke through into the engine bay.
I suppose you could use a wire coat hanger, but I would clip off the twisted part for fear of it getting hung up somehow inside the tube.

Anyone else? Tried the coathanger routine, but it was not long enough.

I used braided wire like a bike brake cable.

Might also try using the thickest string trimmer line you can find.

Try and locate some 12 or 14 gauge wiring. The kind you'd wire an outlet in your house with. Strip the casing back and one of the three wires inside can be used. You can cut any length you like.

weedwacker nylon trim line, voice of experience. It can be a long as you want. Use what is left in the yard.
