Default water from the sunroof

91 ls, 276k miles. It rained here in mississippi and this morning when I backed out of the driveway and come to a complete stop. About two glasses f water came through the roof of the passenger side of sunroof. How do I fix this problem and can I fix it myself. Let me know.

I had this problem before. If you open your sunroof and look from the top, there's a drain hole in the corner, you need to clear that out by blowing some air through there.

ok problem number two. the sunroof is jammed. it only tilts up and down. when i try to move it backwards it only moves about 2 inches and stops. what is the source of this problem because from the sounds of it I cant fix the the first problem unless i can make the roof move back period.

I think the tube might have came out of its track, and is jamming the sunroof, and not draining anymore.
