I saw this pinched off drain hose when I was changing my headliner on my 98 CE. I pulled the smaller tube out of the larger tube and saw it was plugged. Even when I cleaned it out and tried squeezing it, it only opened half way. Then I put in a small section of some aluminum tubing I had, to keep it from pinching off again. I did this to my 97 also, it had the same problem.
