    Leaking fuel! Help!

    ok....so today i decided to run the e30 today cause its been about a week since it has done anything.
    i noticed that i started to leak fuel from my car.
    it is leaking from under the car ahead of the rear left tire.
    im thinking its the fuel pump.
    wat do u guys think?
    I don't even own this car anymore, but I'm too lazy to change the picture.

    I think you should put it up on jackstands and look at it. There are many fuel lines, the filter, etc there.

      99% sure its your fuel filter rubber lines. They probably have never been replaced. Get some new rubber fuel line and swap in some new ones ASAP

        i had that same leak a couple months ago. My friend looked under and the hose was cracked and leaking from there. Went to kragen/autozone and bought a foot of rubber hose and he replaced the part that was cracked. Just need a screwdriver and some scissors to cut the right length that you need. At least that's all it took in my situation.

          No you need fuel injection hose. The m20 dual or single pump has about 45-50 psi. Fuel rated line will burst. If you are putting vacuum line on there your car will die a firey death and possibly you as well. YOU MUST USE FUEL INJECTION HOSE, IF IT DOESNT SAY FUEL INJECTION ON IT DO NOT USE IT PERIOD.
