Yep
Could it be a leak that only occurs when its heated up? as things expand?
Possibility, but I've been running this still for about 4 years or so. never had a problem.
Are the plates loading as per normal, how does the Shotgun feel is it warm while you run?
Yes. Shotgun cool.
What speed are you running at?

This does look like the PC is leaky internally and diluting the product. Here's a thought mate take the PC off and position it so the outlets are vertical then fill it with water so both out lets are just under flowing, put some paper towel at each end to check for leaks. If none are found grab ya blowtorch and warm up the PC taking care not set the paper towel on fire :laughing-rolling:
Cheers Bryan
