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...
