Well after all this rain we have had the last couple days, the passenger
side floor of my XJ is soaked, well the floor mat is soaked.
Was wondering if anyone might have some possible places to look for the
leak? It is not leaking around the side window, and unless its leaking and
running down behind the pillar trim it doesn't appear to be leaking from the
windshield.
Any help and suggestions greatly appreciated

Snow...93 XJ, 4.0, 90% stock & 85% new.

 

Hmmmm not really familiar with XJ's, but if like the TJ's, it's
probably a clogged cowl vent (vertical vent slots on the hood).

First make sure it's not coolant from the heater core :)

The first signs of a leaky heater core are a defroster that doesn't work
anymore (it just fogs up the windshield) and a sweet smell inside the
passenger compartment. A puddle on the floor is a really advanced sign.
