a lot of fuel leaking outta my car.. HELP
just turned on my car this morning, havnt started it in about a week. started it and smelt fuel right away, let it warm up for 3 mins, then reversed it and saw a puddle of fuel on the floor and saw it dropping as i reversed. found the source of the leak, believe it is that one line that runs after where a fuel pressure regulator should be. wondering is it just a damaged hole in the line or what is broken thats making it leak so much. my car is a 1995 acura RS. ill try to get pic up.. but someone PLEASE HELP.

i think i fixed it... pulled the line off. cut a lil part of it ( even though i coudlnt see any damage or leak) tightend it again and i didnt see anymore leak so i drove it around and i think i should be oK?
where was the fuel coming from? the fuel line? fuel pump? can you start the car and let it run for 1 minute and see where is it coming from? if the puddle is big enough you can tell where is coming from

yeah, it was coming from i think the fuel return line? the line coming outta the fuel pressure regulator into the lines near firewwall.

I had the same problem on mine after installing/removing an FMU a number of times. Just cut about an inch of the hose off and put it back on with a really tight clamp. No more issues.
