Drivers Side Floor Wet
The car is all dried out, been that way for a good month as I've been garaging it and not driving in the rain. Next rain we get will give it a good test. I'll look at the black plastic bungs as well under the carpet. Need to re-attach the wipers now.

OK, some success. One drain hole (passenger) seemed a bit covered, the driver's side was "probably" ok. Anyway gave the whole area a good rinse, and ran the hose in the driver's side drain hole (and passenger) for a few minutes and didn't see any water come in the driver's side floor.

Maybe it's a bit stiff, I'll try again.

I've removed all the Phillips head screws attaching the black plastic/wiper linkerage cover off (a out 8-10 screws), removed the caps and then nuts from the windscreen wipers so I can remove the whole black plastic piece, but I'm having issues removing the windscreen wipers - looks to be alot of debris under there.

Hi Sam_Q, as in my original post, the car wasn't driven and was left outside for months.

Air Filter Gets Black Quick
I have a 1990 Toyota Corolla Hatchback (AE92). I first noticed a problem with car's performance when I bought the car; it was extremely sluggish. After a week or so with putting up with this I popped the bonnet and checked the air filter (photo below) and noticed it was totally black. I installed a new air filter and it was like a totally new car! Anyway, maybe after 4 weeks I inspected the condition of the new air filter and whilst it wasn't in the condition of the original filter, it was quite dirty for a 4 week old filter, again - sluggish performance with a few misses whilst accelerating. Any ideas what could be causing the air filter to become black really quickly? It's not "dirt", it's more of an oil colour on the filter.

I have a 1990 Toyota Corolla Hatchback (AE92). I left my car at a mates for a few months so he could fix a few engine problems whilst I was overseas. The car was not driven and was left outside. After some rain, my mate told me the floor of the drivers side had a big pool of water in it, and I saw this too. He seems to think some sort of drain hole is blocked, does anyone know how to fix this? He mentioned the front right wheel arch to be unscrewed and drain holes cleared? We ran out of time to check this.
