Also, as stated, the sun roof is another know leak source, the vent in front of the windshield wipers, both have drain tubes. Also, not quite so well known, but just as aggravating, the windshield wiper posts, where the wipers are attached, can, and will leak where they go through the firewall. A dab of silicone from under the dash will take care of that, but a little hard to get to. Front and rear windshield seals are also known to not seal like their intended to. Door seals also. Think that just about covers it. You would think the British would have better water proofing, being from a country with so much moisture!

i was able to fix the problem. it was the evap box under the dash that had water in it. the drain tubes were clogged, so i used my air compressor and blew all of the crap out of them. also as a future precaution, i used some RTV silicon to seal the tubes to the outputs. i will also keep in mind to check the evap box itself for any condensation every month or so. thanx for all of the help guys.

I love it when a plan comes together! I just re-read my last post, and I put drain plugs, but should have been tubes. But from my description of where they were located, you could tell what I was talking about. Anyway, I''m glad it was something so common, and really easy to take care of. Good job Zippo!
