re leaks

Don

The water pressure on the hull needs to be greater than 3.4 lbs per sq inch before it will leaks. I can only assume that it might be around the windows where there is a reasonable pressure exerted and it is coming in around the window seal. Kevin mentioning the replacement of the windows due to etched plexiglass might be the culpret. It might be worthwhile condsidering sealant but the leaf blow trick would certainly show it up. I am guessing along the top of the window. If you find water in the AC after a big rain then i might suspect the hatch covers. I don't think it is coming from inside firewall.

Sure is a mystery that only pressurization testing will solve. BTW check all the rivets along where the instrument panel attaches. They seem to losen up and cause leaks.

let us know the results. Are you heading to mx for Xmas ?

Bob
