I went to the hardware store and grabbed stick on open cell foam typically
used for sealing around windows. It comes in various thicknesses. Mine was
soft open cell foam about 1/2 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick. I had leaks at
the aft bottom corner of the door and at the lower portion of the aft side.
I cut the foam with a razor to make a tapered edge so I could use short
sections of foam and not have a leak at the transition from areas with the
foam added to areas without. I probably could have run the foam all the way
around.

Use a piece of saran wrap about 1/2 inch wide and a few inches long to look
for the leaks. It will suck up to the leaking point and tell you exactly
where the problem areas are.

For Michael Newman:

What type foam did you use on the door seal?  Any detailed info would be
helpful as I think that I have the same problem>.

Thanks, Bill Hogarty
