It sounds like you've got a leak somewhere, that's not normal. Check that rubber seal that's at the back of the hood, near the windshield. Maybe it's not sealing. That's about the only place I can think of where water might really get in.2002 Silver Firebird A4<br />T-Tops, Leather, Y87, W68, Chrome Wheels<br />Bone Stock

it does sound like some seals are failing but like what has been said before, the engine compartment was designed to be wet.

thanks, it was a seal, looks like at one time someone put a new windshild in. when they did they took all the plastic off and broke the foam seal and didnt bother the put the middle part of in back in. Ill buy some and replace all of it tomorrow, im sure that will do it<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261</a> Green 1997, 105k, all stock except for Z28 front springs, Air shocks in the rear, home made coolant recovery tank, home made battery hold down.
