Default Water build-up in door

For the past week or so, I could hear a splashing sound mainly when braking. At first I thought is was the fuel inside the 1/2 full tank. It turned out to be water inside the driver's door. I used a large tiewrap to unclog the front and rear drain ports. About 2 cup fulls came out. I believe it's time to shoot some T40 in there

I'd take the door panel off and let it dry out first and remove all the other junk in there.

It's a good time to look for rust behind the door seal while you're at it.
