hey everyone
its been a while - but im in need of some help. my fuel line sprung a leak. i notice a big puddle under the passenger side seat. when investigated i could smell gas. then i tried to start is and no luck out of gas. has this happened to anyone? is it as simple as just replacing the fuel line itstelf or can i just repair the area that is leaking? is this a straight forward/simple job that i can perform myself or is it for a true mechanic? please advice, much appreciated... -jp- |

Let this be clear. The problems with fuel systems are NOT the factory lines that everyone insists you have to replace them. The stock fuel lines really do work.
Sure, buy the right ones. Tangerine. Done. |
