I noticed a water stain on the floor. I determined its coming out of the air vent on the back. This is a rubber stretchable hose that goes from the top of the drum to the back. Guide says it an air vent. Its not much water but enough to notice, maybe a cup or two over 4 or 5 loads. but enough to see water on the floor. What can I do? or why is it seaping out?

Be sure you are using HE detergent and only about 1 Tablespoon for a load. You are ending up with too many bubbles in the machine and when it goes to spin the bubbles come out the air vent. There is a valve that closes during spin but bubbles are not strong enough to lift the valve it has to be water hitting it before it closes.

water is coming out of the back of the washer, there is a round plastic vent hole next to the water intakes, this is the place the water is coming out, its not doing it all the time.
Just think like a pipe-fitter. Remove the top, remove the clamp on the air vent tube, remove the plastic air vent on the back side, install a drain fitting with a 90 degree elbow and four adapter fittings, and a PVC pipe and vinyl tube, and collector jug on the floor, cement the adapters, add a washer to insure a solid support structure, add wire to the new drain pipe connecting to the washers drain pipe, re-clamp the air vent hose back, and then you are good to go.
