Found a water leak, time to share
Car on ramps (top end rebuild).
Keep finding water in the rear floor pans after a hard rain. Sunroof drains - ok Drains in rear of fenders - cleared Windshield gasket - needs to be replaced, but not leaking in. Front/Firewall cowl drain - clear. Removed wipers, cowl, leafguards, and inspected the cowl heater area. Found a 1/4 drain hole just rear of cowl/firewall drain. Rubber stopper deteriorated and was letting the collected water drain into the cabin, down the tranny hump, and into the pass rear seat pan. Another suggestion I heard is to "reroute" the fresh air drain. On my car (has a/c) the fresh air drain is only on the drivers side. (the pass side is plugged w/styrofoam). Tube drains into space behind front driver's wheel (where vacuum accumulator is). That area is usually sealed off by the cover, so water has no place to go. I suppose you could run the tube through the cover, but there might be another way... joe |
