Welcome!

I'll move this over to General Tech where the actual questions belong. This is just a "Welcome & Introductions" place.

There are about 9 body plugs on this modulator that are potential leak points. There is a TSB that calls for removal of modulator and re-tightening all the plugs. PM your email to me and I'll forward. It's too big to attach.

It could be the oring on the accumulator is leaking also, or seals on the brake fluid reservoir.

I removed the modulator on a 97 Acura CL (2.2L) w/ same modulator that was leaking and tightening the plugs stopped leaking.

Removing the modulator is easy, but use a 10mm flare tubing wrench to loosen the tubing nuts. They can be very tight and an open end will round them off. A flare tubing wrench is a closed end wrench w/ small slot to slip over small tube and engage tubing nut. You can find them online, Harbor Freight, Sears, etc.

good luck
