pequeajim, I have the Cummins 330 in my rig, the fluid spitting out the back of the coach could be coming from the radiator overflow tube. There was no coolant recovery system on my rig, so I bought a simple coolant jug at an auto parts store and attached the overflow hose to it. If the coolant is anywhere near visible at the bottom of the sight tube, it will spit out coolant(I know because the radiator grille and the front of my car would show the evidence). I periodically remove the radiator cap and do a finger-dip to make sure the coolant level is OK, even though you can see it at times while it's running. My chassis is a Spartan Mountain Master with the straight front axle instead of the IFS which had problems with the rubber ball joint boots failing (which I understand is a costly repair), make sure to confirm what front end is on that unit, normal thinking was as you went up the food chain, usually you went to the IFS.
