Went out and started the 914 after 2.5 months storage. Fired up after a few cranks but when I backed it out of the garage realized I was leaking a fair amount of gas on both sides. Shut it down and noticed gas was leaking at injectors on both sides.

Have had zero issues until now. Just seems odd that I have leaks on both sides. Is it possible that there are seals that dried up? Any suggestions for diagnosing this? Bummer......
