Default 1997 CL A/C Problems

Hey all, i have a 1997 Acura 3.0 CL and i am having some trouble with my A/C.

I bought it with 109k and it worked great! But a few months back i had to use it for work driving about 8-10 hrs. a day! I noticed it was leaking some clear water underneath the passenger seat down by where the glovebox is. I didnt think much of it at first but it eventually got to where it was starting to soak my carpet. I stopped driving it so much, it still worked, i called a few places and asked about the leaking, they all told me it was condensation. I was told just to "ignore it" well eventually my AC Quit working. I took it down to a local radiator/ac Place and they checked the pressure with the guages and did not see a leak. They re-fueled it up and the needle on the guage still did not move! I took it home hoping it would go away, but within a few days it all leaked out. I didnt have any money at the time and it was just in the winter so it didnt matter.

Now it's the summer and its really hot in AZ (as you know) So i need to get it fixed. Any idea's on what the problem is, alot of people told me that it is provbobly something that only honda would know how to fix. But i dont want to pay a honda tech $100 an hour.

Any ideas?

Usually water leaking inside means your drain is stopped up. If your low on refig then it will freeze up. If it originally cooled well, but leaked on the pass carpet. Then it is the drain. You may have other problems after taking the evap out.
Hope this is helpful
