Hey Fellas:

I just recently purchased a 1996 Discovery. This afternoon I "Discovered" that the front passenger side floor board was soaking wet. I suspect that the moisture is condensation resulting from the Air Conditioner. Has anyone experienced this, if so, what was the source of the problem and how did you fix it.

I have the same problem from time to time, its nothing major, just the air conditioning drains being clogged up. Simple fix, get yourself a coat hanger, and crawl under your Disco, you will see two "nipples" on either side of the transfer case, put the coat hanger up there and remove the offending junk. Wear a shirt that you don't like when you do this because some Discos have been know to drain a quart of water out when you clear the drain.

Just make sure your vehicle is nice and cool, then get under (with nasty shirt) and even take ya a flashlight, I had to. Locate your t-case, and start looking on either side of it for the rubber nipple deals. I didn't use a coat hanger, I just massaged my nipples until they excreted filthy smelling/looking water onto my face and shirt.
