intercooler sprayer

My first question is what exactly does this do. 2nd got my oil changed and the tech said my washer fluid container was leaking. Then on my way home i reailized the fluid is in the trunk the sprayer is under the hood. What do i need to do to fix this. I dont use the spayer not sure what its good for so what should i do. (i think im going to change the oil myself from now on)

well the sprayer helps keep your air intake temps lower thus providing you with a bit more powa!!! It's nice to have if it comes on your car already, I wouldn't go out an buy it though.

There is no actual "Leak", there is however a drainage hole in case it is overfilled. there is nothing to fix, just don't let them fill it so high next time, or let them it doesn't really matter.

no need to drain it. it automatically or you can manually turn it on.
