How much fluid are you losing? I'm sure Eric will be able to help out but he probably won't be on til tomorrow.

Can you be a little more descriptive? When are you losing fluid? How much? Maybe a pic??? Could be a water pump seal....

It should be item 6 on here. That is usually where the problem lies when it is leaking out of the weep hole...And might as well replace number 10 also while you are at it (O-Ring for the cover). Better safe then sorry!
