RE: [DML] Fuel leak, please help...



Scott, How much gas was in the car. Most common to me was the boot wasn't
fully secure and the return line going thru the book doesn't have a clamp.
Also if the boot filled up on top then the check valve may be leaking.

Subject: [DML] Fuel leak, please help...


Just finished doing all sorts of electrical and cooling work to my car, and
I was excited to get it back on the road.

So my girlfriend and I hop in the car and I start it for the first test
drive. Just before I close the door I smell fuel and upon looking under the
car find that I have a small stream of fuel leaking from the middle of the
car. So I immediately turned the ignition off and grabbed the fire
extinguisher just in case.

I jacked the car up, but could not find where the leak is coming from. Is
there a part of the fuel line in the middle of the car that is prone to
leaking? Anyone else had an experience like this?
