<div class="bbWrapper">It looks like it&#039;s leaking around the cap where you would fill it up. Did the previous owner leave the cap loose? Maybe the cap&#039;s seal is missing? Maybe they over filled the tank and pressure is forcing fluid out the cap? I&#039;d clean it up real good so you can see where the fluid is really coming from. I&#039;d also check the fluid level in the tank to see if it&#039;s over filled.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">If you get lucky and the gasket or seal is a standard size you may be able to find one at an Auto Parts store. You could also try an RV store but I kinda doubt they&#039;d have it. Maybe Ace hardware? They have a tremendous section of gaskets and seals over in the nut and bolt section.</div>
