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

[billsfanmd@xxxx]

Your fuel leak expert at your service :-) Again, you may need to be more 
specific as the middle of the car covers a 3 foot area....I would look at the 
accumulator hoses first and see if there is fuel dripping there..the frame 
there has a big hole so its easy to look up there....Next look behind your 
front right wheel and you should see the 2 fuel lines that come off the fuel 
pump and connect to the steel lines on teh car...One thing i noticed right 
away when mine leaked is the fuel makes the brass fittings very shiny so its 
easy to see, you want hose fittings to look old and dirty....Look under your 
left rear wheel that fuel filter does not have aleak or losse fitting. Next 
I have heard about the steel lines inside the frame getting cracks but that 
is rarer....

What I would do is in an open area have your girlfrined turn the key (but 
dont start the car)...look under the car and follow the leak to the 
source....Did you do anything near these fuel lines??? they do run under the 
center console so maybe something you did there....I wish I could be more 
help but you need to really look for the source....the ful lsystem is under 
alot of pressure so at least the leak will be obvious which is better one 
that is hard to trace...

let me know what you find
good luck
