Cowl Drains......
Ok folks, after all the sage advice on my brakes, (which mind you, i can now stop on a sime and give ya 20 cents back!) the next focus of concern is my right side cowl drain... I have had a slight problem with getting water on the right side floor board. I took the right side kick panel off and had a buddy pour some water slowly down the winshield post and got some water in. I allowed the area to dry out good and inspected the windshield area at the bottom. I did see some small holes which I then sealed up with black silicone and that stopped 90% of it. My gut instinct tells me that the cowl drain may be plugged. Whats the best way to clean them out????

I used a vacuum cleaner on mine.
You may also want to check the rubber seal where the windshield and fender meet... http://users.erols.com/jerryp58/corv.../vetteseal.JPG You could put a small bead of caulk on it or even tape it to see if the leak is coming from there.
