random ur-q hyd sys leaks



Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this type
ps leak. If I drive the ur-q daily or every other day, the car
is dry, not a drop of anything from anywhere. But if I let 
the car sit parked for 1-2 weeks, as I have done for the 
last month while putting miles on the 90 200TQW, it 
dispenses ATF fluid from the bottom of the hyd reservoir
onto the tranny and then onto the garage floor. A good
amount too, the spot probably has a diameter of 10 in.

I do know that the  bomp is still holding some pressure 
because when I pump it down, the fluid level in the 
reservoir increases. I'm wondering if somehow the 
bomb pressure is partially discharged over time and
for some reason the fluid can't get back into the reservoir
and comes spewing out the hose connnections at the
bottom. BTW hose clamps on the bottom are tight.

Thanks.
