windsheild washer reservoir leak?
hey guys
recently ive noticed some green fluid underneath my car, and the only green fluid i can think of is windsheld washer fluid. at first i thought it was coolant (from teh honda days) but the coolant reservoir is full and its all pink stuff. from what i can see/remember all the important fluids are either pink or brown.
ive had alll the fluids changed about a year ago based on the the big 100k mile services as i did all that preventatively.
i'm wondering if it my windshield washer reservoir having a small leak of some sort.
anyone else ever have this problem?
i've taken it to my indy and they couldnt see any leaks.
thanks in advance.

Check through the grille with a flashlight for cracks in the washer tank, since rocks from the road can hit it directly. Also make sure the rubber hoses are connected fully, and check the hoses for leaks.

My '95 LS 400 just started leaking from the very bottom of the WWtank where two light green leads go into a plastic plug or grommet with a fat rubber washer... Tried tightening up the grommet but it felt like I needed to back up the turning from above, which would be awkward, to say the very least.... Might have to pull the tank to see what's up, but am not keen to do that. A schematic of the innards of the tank might be the ticket, if anyone has that.... No idea why it would suddenly start to leak after all these years, but drains a full tank overnight. Thanks, Howard
