Default Any ideas?

I have a problem with my driver's side windshield washer squirter leaking. It doesn't leak under the hood, only on top. It appears to collect around the base, then run across the hood on turns. It is an OE squirter on a Mugen hood, and has been working fine for months. The leaking also has no coorelation to use. In other words, it doesn't matter if I just squirted them or not. Is it just the squirter? Passenger side works fine.
Thanks.

You may have a partial blockage in the line to that side or even in the nozzle itself that holds pressure after you use the squirter. That built up pressure will then push the fluid out after you have finished using the washer. If you are a "handy kinda guy", try to backflush it by squirting your garden hose into the nozzle. You might want to disconnect it first under the hood where the hose branches off to that side so you don't have to much resistance and don't fill your fluid reservoir with garden hose water.
