(2004 GT with an o/r H)

i took a drive yesterday it was about, 82 degrees outside, so i had the a/c on. the trip was about 80+ miles or so, with a little traffic here and there. when i got to where i was going i left my car for about 10 minutes or so, and when i came back there was water running down the parking lot coming from under my car. so i looked under and it was coming from, i guess the headers (i couldn't tell exactly) but it was dripping off my passenger side mid pipe. and it was A LOT of fluid. i felt the texture and it seemed like water, it wasn't oil or coolant. so i took the ride back home this time with the a/c off the whole way back, when i got home there was nothing...idk if it was from my a/c being on or maybe whatever fluids were there are all gone so that's why it stopped or what...does anyone know what this could be from?

and also, i have a crack in my radiator and it was leaking so i added some of that Prestone stop leak in there and it stopped about 10 minutes later. could this be a factor as well? i need to know what to look for so i can see about fixing the issue. thanks guys...
 
Water vapor condenses on the A/C unit in your car and when it condenses it drips off as water. This is perfectly normal. It's very similar to when you place a cover on a pot of boiling water and when you remove it is full of water droplets that have condensed.
 
I Mean Really, wow. But hey better safe then sorry I guess. Oh and the stop leak will only last till the plastic tanks on the radiator start cracking some more. Oh and I heard the stop leak is REAL bad for heater cores and seemed like something else...oh head gaskets but since your radiators not leaking for the moment I guess all is well
