Fluid spills onto my feet while turning.

If it's a factory sun roof, it will have 4 drains. If the drains are not clogged, you can poor water in the tracks and it will spill out either quarter panel or in the front near the fender inner wells.

I know I don't own an Accord, but I had this very same problem with my Del Sol. I can tell you the fix for the Del Sol. If it works, yay; if it doesn't, well I tried.
In the Del Sol, RIGHT under the glove compartment, there is a plastic piece. Coming out of the piece there is a rubber tube that goes out the firewall. Reach your hand under your glove compartment and dash and feel around for a round rubber tube. Squeeze that tube and examine it for any pinches or cracks. Mine was pinched. I squeezed it and heard this bubling noise of the water draining out, and that was that. I never had a single problem since. Check it out under that dash of yours. It may be similar. I know I don't have an Accord, but you never know.

Well I did some reading about the AC in a haynes manual, and it mentions the "condensation drain pipe" possibly being plugged if you're getting water on the passenger side floor. And I found out the last couple days that the passenger side floor is almost constantly wet. (And only rarely - like when cornering hard - do I get any fluid on the driver's side.)
Unfortunately, I have no clue where this damn pipe is located.. I think I have to get under the engine to find it, and I have no easy way to do that right now.

Hey..
I thought I'd try what Falkon said he did with his de sol - and try to locate the black tube under the glove compartment.
I found it, and squeezed it a bit. Made a bit of a crunching sound while I did that.. and now the problem's gone.
I'm sure it'll return in time though, until I can get the condensation tube properly cleaned out.
But for now, that's cool. Thanks Falkon and others!

Hi all,
I had the same problem with my 94' civic. If I run the a/c for some period of time, then made sharp turn (either way), I would get about a cup of water on my feet.
At least on my civic, the drain is a 1/4" diameter tube that you can get to from inside the car. Lift the capet under the passenger side floor well, and look under the glove box-- you will see what looks like a black triangle. At the end of this triangle, there is a black tube that you can just slip off. Make sure you have a bucket handy, becuase if the tube if blocked, you will get liquid comming out when you disconnec the hose. Let the water drain, then take a piece of wire and snake it down the tube. You should see a little puddle under the car if there was water in the tube and you get rid of the blockage. Make sure to connec the hose back up, and you should be good to go.
