I recently had my fuel pump replaced which required the removal of my gas tank. Ever since then after long drives 6-8 hours with the A/C running in 90-100 degree air temps (also humid conditions) I have a very wet spot on the cargo area floor just behind the third passenger side seat. I suspect a blocked condensate line is redirecting the A/C condensation into the vehicle instead of outside. Could this be the problem and is it possible for me to check it myself somehow and unblock it? I was on a car trip over 600 miles away when I had the repair done at a Mr Goodwrench shop. I can't easily just take it back in for them to take a look.

This might be a coincidince. But you'll have to crawl under the truck and see if the line is blocked. You'll get wet. If you can't see it then you'll have to try to take it apart from the top to unplug it. When you are under the truck you'l need like a coat hanger to unplug it. Of course it may be under the gas tank and you can't reach so you'll have to take it apart anyhow.
