[QUOTE="Riderjohn, post: 419090, member: 13748"] Bobcattoo - sorry to hear you had the same problem. It is so small that you hate to make a big deal of it. Then you ignore it and soon it's running down the water pump. I've found out one thing that makes it even more puzzling. When it's cool (90 degrees or less) not much happens to the leak. And, 90 is really cool for here. But if it gets 95 or more out, quite a bit comes down that outer hose. I've thought maybe it's an adhesive to hold the two hoses together but it's oil. I just know it's oil. I had hoped someone had this trouble before. So we will just have to keep wiping up the oil until we figure it out. I've looked up along that hose and I don't see how oil could get in it. I had a small hope it was from oil that had been used during assembly and would soon just empty out but you have dashed that hope. But I appreciate your reply. [/QUOTE]
