Thank you, you're very kind! I got on it pretty good at lunch time today before going back to the office, and when I left tonight, the ground was dry, so I'm hoping my 1/4 turn on the worm clamp did the trick. I will call if not.

Thank you for all the info. This was a very informative thread for me!

No problem! I am here to help, not just sell.

Let me know if you need anything, or if that leak reappears.

No fluid on the garage floor this morning, so it looks like maybe that 1/4 turn was just enough to do the trick. Thanks again Jessika!

Ok...I'm reviving this thread....I have a DIFFERENT leak now. Totally clear fluid, slightly viscous like a lightweight oil. So I know it's not coolant, it's not brake/clutch fluid. I don't believe it's transmission fluid (that's not clear is it?) it's not motor oil. So...what color is the oil in the S/C and has anyone ever experienced a leak of their SC lubricant?

The puddle I found on the floor would be roughly centerline of the car toward the rear of the engine.

Help!

Are you sure it's not motor oil, I had a little weep from my rear main seal...

Definitely not motor oil because it was completely clear and there was enough of it that it would have had color if it was motor oil.

Oil in the supercharger is clear. At least it was on mine. If you look toward the back of the supercharger under the belt do you see or feel any oil? Mine had a leak in this area but it was small. Definitely not enough to drip to the ground.

There is not a lot of oil in these superchargers, do you have a picture of the puddle?

Is it possible that your condensor drain was blocked or restricted and it dumped in a different location? That water will puddle and have a slight oily feeling to it at times.
