Archived from groups: alt>autos>corvette (more info?)

I just took the '93 on about a 40-mile run on various types of roads, from
county roads to an interstate. Drove it reasonably hard at times, easy at
others. After getting home, I get a lot of water dripping onto the garage
floor. It's dripping from under the passenger door nearer the front fender,
is cold to the touch. Is this where condensation from the A/C would drip
from? I had the A/C on, but set to 78 and that was about the ambient temp,
and I was driving with the windows down.

I can understand some condensation, but this is really quite a bit of water.
It has been pretty humid here, with fog in the mornings lately.

Clear water is A/C condensation. There are no other "clear water" sources.
PS. You were attempting to dehumidify the world.

That's what I figured. I just wasn't sure on this car where the water would
drip from.

Well the 'Vette sure waaay out-condenses either of the Acuras. There's a
front coming through here tonight and hi temps are to be in the 60's
throughout the week. Me? I'm off to Florida, with the golf clubs. Surprised)

It could be your system needs a higher water level to drain when the car
is moving with the windows open so more water drains when you stop the
car.
