Mine started the same thing last week. Warning came on, Filled up, within an hour it was empty again. Next time I filled up I saw it dumping out right on the ground just where the pumps would be. I anticipate it is the grommet. I imagine that one of the 10 degree days go to one of the 8 year old rubber pieces. Guessing you got the same issue.

I will pull mine apart this week, take pics, get parts and if it is what I think it is, I will order extras and send the grommets your way.

If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers.
