Its get wet around the
Gold tee and surrounding 3 closest clamps
And will drip a nice puddle but as soon as the car is running driving
Drip go's away , even after turning off the car and restarting
Never comes back until the next sunday drive .

But then there it is again

Bolt clamps are swiveled around
So i cant really reach them

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) & Is the Tee a barbed fitting or threaded fitting? Is the rubber stiff? What is that yellow ring? Hint: Take a piece of a paper towel and wrap around each joint. Pressurize and quickly check for wet spots on paper towel. One pin head drop of gas will make a quarter sized splotch on the paper. Makes it quick and easy to locate which one is leaking. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

What kind of fuel pump are you using and what is the output pressure. It shouldn't be more than about 3 1/2 PSI with carbs.
