Bone headed Move- Damage Question
 

Greetings All:

I was doing my 13th annual winter storage prep routine today for the 'Box and in the process of changing the oil and filter (actually getting the car on jackstands first), I inadvertently placed the front passenger jackstand a couple of inches shy of the support mount without noticing it. When I went to get the car off the stands, I noticed that the stand had pinched almost completely one of two approximately 1" diameter tubes (the one closest to the outside) that runs from head to tail on the car.

I am guesting that this tube is a conduit that carries something within like a brake, radiator or electric line. After a short 6 mile drive to my storage facility (my mother in law's) , nothing was leaking and the car seemed to drive as normal.

Can anyone tell me what I crushed so I know if I need to get a repair planned next spring? Thanks.

Steve

A/C lines? I believe that is what runs along the passenger side.

Damage question
 

Steve,

With no obvious fluid leak on the ground. A check on your A/C lines would be next ?
Otherwise, just hope that the line did not get crushed completely.l


Good luck

The coolant lines are located in the center tunnel and the brake lines are definitely not 1" in diameter, so it is most likely an A/C line. Have the A/C tested.

2 black lines running close to the pass side rocker about 1.5" apart?? Those are the AC lines from compressor to the condenser at the front.
