Radiator Fluid leaking out of the top

Is this happening to anybody else.

Right above my exhaust manifold are some Big Alien screws that are leaking radiator fluid!

The friend who noticed it happen to be a CAT diesel mechanic for heavy equipment.

He said it was no big deal. I could run for ever like that..I would just have to keep checking my fluid level more frequent and its making a mess of my egine compartment.

I will be getting it fixed. It is still under warrenty. Just have to take off my Banks Chip.

Just try tightening them. Others have had the same issue and snugging them up made all the difference.

Buzzer is right...they are loose and need a turn or two.
