[DML] Condensation Blues

["jakekamp" <jakekamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings all,

In the thousands of miles I've driven my DeLorean, I've had virtually 
no mechanical issues.  I've driven my car the width of the US (in 
terms of states, anyway), from Washington to N. Carolina, via St. 
Louis, no real problems.  --But I can't seem to properly insulate my 
A/C box in the passenger footwell!!

My car is early enough in production that it never came with the 
insulation on the evaporator box.  As a result, water accumulates on 
my A/C box and eventually drips on my passenger's feet.  I tried to 
insulate the box using a Rubatex, self adhesive insulation from 
Lowes.  This worked well for about a week, until I assume the 
insulation worked its way off the box a bit, condensated underneath, 
and saturated the stuff enough to drip again.  Doh!

So what do you guys recommend I do?  My next plan was to use some 
gasket cement, in an even coat, to adhere the initial layer of 
insulation to the box.  Will this help?  I should also note that the 
surfaces were clean and dry when I applied the insulation the first 
time, and my car pisses like a racehorse out the drainpipe for the 
box. -So no clogging there.  Any ideas??

Thanks in advance,
