Water is leaking into the passenger side floorboard when the A/C is running on my 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee

If it is water, if is from the AC. Locate the AC drain on the fire wall (pass side) Low. Check to see if it is plugged. Clean it and it should stop the leak.

If it is coolant you are seeing, it will need the heater core replaced.

It is under the hood, on the firewall, lower section on passenger side. Easy to access when on a lift. It may be tough from the top.
