First off, the black drain hose is clear as a whistle.

The weird part is it only does it after the A/C has been cranked up for a while. Then I'll come to a stop sign and take off to the tune of 4k RPMS and I hear the fan blades spew water and sometimes feel some drops shoot out. I looked at it today after it had done this and it sure looks like water was filling up the blower box. Once I played with (like pumped) that black drain tube, a whole bunch of water came out the bottom of the car. I noticed that it gets pretty hot where the hose pops through the tranny tunnel and thought that the end might be closing somehow and I reopen it by creating pressure. Hopefully I am right but what else might it be? This all started shortly after I changed the blower but how could I get anything into the airbox to clog it? Aren't there coils in the way?
