Found that the fitting on the recerc pump to the nozzle was real lose
enough it had a slow leak and when I turned the recerc pump on it would squirt a lot of water out into the bulge

While I was in there I noticed on half the connections the red locking ring had moved I’m sure from a decade of running rough water but each has the potential of being the next leak

So the next time you’re in there take a look and make sure the clips are still in place and the red ring is in the locked position
