Hey all, I have a fuel leak and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas before I drain the tank and remove etc.
I have a 1.3L's tank and elec fuel pump supplying twin 40's with a standard pressure reg and return.
Get the leak only after filling up. Leaks only for a while and by morning fuel gauge says full, no further leak and all's well.
I've very thoroughly checked the supply and return hoses (waggling them under car while its running with a spotlight - dry as a bone, no evidence of pressure build up even after 15mins - leak starts sooner than this after filling tank)
I dont think its the filler hose/pipe as I've noticed (in bad light) the dripping appears to be coming from the middle where the hoses are (hense the above checks)
Could it be some sort of overflow hole or is it more likely to be an undesigred hole?
