Losing Coolant w/all new components - Bumpy Roads

[pinemind]

Hey all,

So I've been enjoying driving now that my engine bay project is done. However, I noticed that sometimes, my coolant reservoir is dropping. I could see some coolant sprayed in the IACV/Throttle body/thermostat area (ie rats nest of tiny hoses) but can't find the source. Furthermore, I narrowed it down to only happening when I drive on bumpy roads (offroad, cobblestone). I drove 2 hours in 95 degree heat on smooth highways, no loss. 15 minutes total on city potholes and cobblestone, lost about a half inch in the overflow.

I replaced everything with OEM parts. All hoses, clamps, overflow tank, cap, lower metal hose, radiator. It wasn't leaking before so I'm stumped. Going to do a dye test but was curious if anyone else has ever seen this?

Figured I would reply as I fixed the issue. I went through and cranked down every single clamp, most of the ones were for the silicone radiator hoses as I wasn't used to how much I could clamp them down. I'm assuming my observation of bumpy roads causing the issues were due to the clamps not being tight and coolant splashing through when getting thrashed around. The larger leaks stopped but now I noticed coolant coming out of the weep hole for the water pump. So I've got a Saturday project coming up soon.
