My 2005 Itasca Horizon has a small drip near the passenger side front jack. After several weeks of sitting in this paved campground there is a 12 inch diameter spot on the pavement. This spot is on the interior side of the extended jack. I crawled under the coach and found the drip is coming from somewhere above the frame member on the curb side of the fuel tank. I cannot see the topside of the frame member. I can see there is a large hole in the frame that allows passage of the curb side gas filler hose and another smaller hose. The dripping fluid feels like very light oil. My first thought was hydraulic fluid. I checked the hydraulic reservoir and found it full. Then I though it might be diesel.
Prior to parking, I filled the fuel tank and drove about 40 miles to the campground, so I burned off about 6 gallons.
Any ideas what is causing the leak? Could it be diesel? Is there some way to determine if the leak is diesel vs. hydraulic fluid? If the tank is almost full would a loose connection on the filler tube leak?
