I had the drive belt snap on me. When I had a look I noticed water leaking on the floor. We first thought the water pump had gone but uner looking a little closer as to where the water was comeing from I noticed a pipe come out of the fire wall and when we turn the heat on in the van water will pour out of this and go to a slow drip with the heat turned off. I am thinking when the belt went it took what ever was connected to this tube with it. I am un able to find any info on what this tube is or what was hooked up to it in the manual. just wondering if any one can shed some light on this for me.

Thanks For any and all info

The heat? The tube sounds more like the drain tube for when the a/c is running.

I was thinking about that as well. I found in the book that the heater core is under the steering side and the something to do with the ac is behind the glove box. Could it ba some kind of a return line cause I found there was that much water or fluid comeing out of it to be kind of weird that it wouldntbe hooked up to something.

verify the location of the heater core and keep an eye on the coolant level.

For your sake hope it isn't the heater core , you will be looking at upwards of $1000 to get that fixed because you have to dissamble the dash to do it .
