1999 Grand Cherokee
« on: January 08, 2011, 03:31:06 PM »
helpplease.  My 1999 JGC is gas converted.  the gas tank is in the area where the spare wheel is normally kept.  Over the last few weeks, a lot of water (3 - 4 inches deep) has been gathering in the spare wheel area. Is there a drain hole in the wheel carrier area? Can I check it from the underneath, or do I need to remove the gas tank? Any comments would be most appreciated. Thanks.

there isn't one in mine, you can soon drill a small hole though  :icon_winkle: Sounds like you have a leaky hatch/rear window seal

I had the same issue with water filling up the spare wheel well.

I traced it to the boot seal.  I took off the seal and piped in a generous amount of black silicone sealant into it, before reattaching the seal, closing the boot\hatch lid and leaving it for a few days to set.  Dry as a bone now...
