Fuel leak

[spooledtt]

Ok so i'm leaking fuel in front of the rear passenger wheel, i checked it out real quick and it looks like its coming from the line that goes from the filler to the tank. Obviously i need to replace it but im wondering if its actually leaking somewhere higher above? And this is my DD... well my only driver, so is it ok to drive it for one more day or so?

Thanks

im sure you could drive it one more day or so granted something doesnt ignite that little itty bitty fuel leak and cause some sort of explosion while youre driving down the highway. :)

you should probably fix it.

It really is Russian roulette if it will ignite or not. I drove my eta with an on and off leaking fuel pump for quite a while of course I didn't care much if it burned, lol just don't keep any valuables in the car that you can't get out quickly. Obviously it is safer not to drive it

wow

my 89 325i just started leaking in the same place yesterday. looked at it today and it looks like its the filler hose where it turns to rubber from metal and attaches to the tank. i am also wondering if it is that or coming from above somewhere? any one else ever have this prob and figure it out? i looked in the compartment in the back seat where the pump is and no leaks there. let me know.

check your fuel expansion tank, it is located behind a plastic cover behind the right rear wheel.
When the gas attendant tops off my tank it leaks a little fuel from there
