98 EB Exped. moonroof not working properly

On my 98 Expedition EB the moon roof will only tilt to vent. When trying to open fully it only opens about a inch, like either its jamming on something or the motor is jamming up. And when closed the glass kind of drops down at the rear slightly. With the visor pulled all the way back I've been using a half empty paper towel roll stuffed between the visor and the glass. This keeps upward pressure at the rear of the moon roof so it won't leak as bad, however, during a really heavy rain storm or going through an automatic car wash it will leak anyway. Also this leak has caused my power drivers seat to stop working. Any ideas to fixing my moon roof issues?

Thanx, John

If it's leaking then the glass is probably not aligned correctly. There are 2 screws on each side of the glass. Loosen the screws to raise or lower the glass as needed to make it flush with the top of the roof.
