    We have had this happen. The thing the oil/coolant flows out of gets gummed up with sludge on the inside so it does not separate the oil from the coolant like it should.

    You can take it off by undoing the ferrule nut at the back. Then take the front off and wash everything out with degreaser and put it back together. It should work okay then.

    Make sure it is sitting level when you put it back.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
