What would be the best way to clean out the drainage tubes for my sunroof square?

maybe air or pipe cleaners?

did a search but didnt come up with much.

Thanks! :D

i put soapy water down the gutter on my sun roof keep on doing it till i saw the water goes down fast the water should come out the back of your front fenders.

On my fresh air box drains, I used a combination of compressed air first to loosen things up followed by my shop vac to suck the rest out. Then just a good steady stream of water to wash out the remainder. Perhaps a length of fuel hose attached to your vacuum to reduce the size of the vacuum hose and the compressied air to get started?

Jim Adney uses a broken speedometer cable, and I use a bike brake cable. This way you can snake the drains to get any blockages.
