    Washer fluid boilover?

    Hi all,

    Dumb, simple problem: I noticed that after drives out and about my washer reservoir is leaking lots of blue foam bubbles out of the cap. I had an exhaust leak about a year ago that was resolved, so I don't think it's that again (though I plan to do the paper test when it's not so nasty out and I have some time). Just so I know what to look for while I'm at it, does anyone know what other potential causes there could be, or ways to test or address it? Is it likely to just a tired reservoir/cap seal or some weird non-obvious culprit? I don't wanna throw the parts cannon at it or start taking the exhaust apart at it without a game plan. It's non-critical obviously, but it annoys me. I wouldn't be surprised if some exhaust studs just need another round of torquing or something, but a quick sanity check is always nice.

    Thanks.
