What color is the fluid that is in the Eaton?

I installed the Apten a week ago and now i'm seeing what looks like engine coolant underneath the eaton nose where it connects to the main body of the supercharger. Seems to be comming from the lower right bolt that holds on the nose....

I checked the intercooler hoses and they look fine.

Thoughts?:shrug:

The Eaton oil is a clear synthetic lube. I would double check those intercooler hoses. Are sure that it isn't just left over from the install?

Well I did the install about 3 weeks ago, but haven't really driven it due to work on the rear and some other mods.

The first time I saw it I thought that it was just left over and that was last weekend.

Today I saw it again and the hoses look clean. Most of it seems to be comming from that lower bolt and it's either clear fluid and the light is reflecting off the coolant tank making it look yellow or it is yellow coolant.

I have no idea how it could be coolant if it is. :bash:
