hope you dont got enemies to try to sabotage you.. but i imagine its chafed fuel line. cant be patched. if its metal, then i would replace the whole line. that sucks man

Re: Leaking gas on drivers side near the door handle

i tried some searching i found a fuel line. ... IF its actually the fuel line. check here http://www.drclassic.com/catalog/Cam...el/S30001.html the fuel line has to have special clip so there isnt metal to metal contact that would lead to chaffing again
