Mount the washer bottle lower in the engine bay or fit a restictor to the squirter hose (won't stop dribbly leak but will slow it a lot).

If the bottle get as or higher than the nozzle, it will siphon out, any car will do it, my Gv's driver's side leak's if I go above 140kph (not on public road's)

My washer bottle leaks when doing endo's in the atari & the rear sprayer leaks when doing wheelies.
deal with it... it's a design feature so you know how steep you've been.

I disconnected the motor. Only leaked after using it. If it can't be used it don't leak. Go figure
Our other Jimny doesn't leak at all
