Windshield Washer Fluid Leak

My low washer fluid light was on the other day, so I filled it up. The next morning, there in my driveway was blue residue and my light was back on. I put some water in the tank and test it . The sprayer worked fine, but 5 min later, all the water had leaked out. Anyone ever have this before? The line going to the tank seems loose, but I haven't actually dug down to see if it is.

Its probably one of the lines, or the tank itself could have a crack in it somewhere.

Theres only so much that can leak out washer fluid. Youll just have to dig around.

Sometimes the hose can be forced off the pump by pressure, but then it wont spray, so that doesnt seem to be your problem.

If the rain ever lets up, I'm going to pull the plastic wheel-well cover off and see if I can find the leak. Hopefully it's just something loose. If it is a crack or hole or something, DUCT tape had better do the trick.

Real men don't need any ####### windshield wiper fluid. They just pull to the side of the road, turn on the windshield wipers, and piss away!!

Gets off all those bugs and crud in a jiffy.
