Is a fuel drip potentially easily solvable?

And smell of gas........... Mechanic (mobile) is coming to look at it, "maybe its just the line" is a possibility i suppose. If my car can stop "Smelling like gas" as easy as that, thats great! It just ran for a bit. Not bad i say. Seems better when warmed up though

What all is involved to change a fuel line? Symptom is "Strong smell of gas" from back of car and gas leak, as it all dripped out, the four gallons i put in.

Re: Is a fuel drip potentially easily solvable?

Many of these cars have an issue with where the filler neck attaches to the gas tank - and can end up with a leak there. Might be that - only way to know for sure is to put out your smoke, and crawl up under to see what's leaking where.
