Hi, When running the car on the drive the other day, I have noticed a very slight drip of petrol coming from the fuel rail and dripping down onto the exhaust manifold. Thankfully the car isn't being driven!
I am guessing the best thing to do would be to remove the rubber hosing on fuel rails and replace it (and the jubilee clips) and clean up the connection ends.
I guess this is simple, but I was wondering if there is anything I should be aware of when doing this? I am guessing some fuel will leak out when I disconnect it, but without the pump running it should be a small amount.
Also, does anyone have any suggestions for the right fuel hose to buy?
Here is the circled area where its dripping from. The car is on an angle down towards the front, so its likely tracking down the pipe and forming here and dripping.
Many thanks for any advice!
