White Fluid in t444e Valley
Hi all, I'm having an issue with my t444e on my Vista. Went out to tinker with the AC system today that we are trying to fix. As usual, bus started up fine and idled as sweet as can be. Was messing with some of the AC controls when after about 5 minutes of idling, I smelled some fuel. Not thinking much of it, I went outside to check on the AC compressor belt, when I saw fluid pouring out from under the bus. Went inside, opened up the doghouse, and saw the entire valley flooded with solid white fluid that was steadily running down the back of the valley. Shut the bus off and went outside again to smell/feel it. Very oily, and has just enough of a fuel smell for it to smell like diesel. In the valley its white, on the ground its clear. We replaced the fuel pump with a brand new one back in March after a similar scenario (less fluid in the valley that time) and have been driving it since then with zero issues. Any idea what this fluid could be? No smoke out of the exhaust and like I said, it idled perfectly as usual and I only noticed it because of the smell. Around 180,xxx miles. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
